Does anyone have the kit from Thundertech or made one themselves?? Pics would be awesome. I'm going to be doing this soon and just looking from ideas.

Thanks, just what I was looking for.

I just received the one from Thundertech. It won't work with the four link suspension mounts in the top hole of the axle housing, they hit when suspension moves down and then bind when turning.

Same thing, I didn't see an easy fix and just put the front of axle steering back on... It'll work if you use the bottom of the axle. these guys are racers not crawlers, works fine there but for my clod I would have to redo all links etc...

There is a good thread on BTA steering here.

Does "behind the axles" limit artic?

i think the monsterrc setup i run on my race clods would work great on a crawler, i run the upper links of my truck down onto the top of the C hubs much like most of you guys mount your lower links. through the whole range of suspension travle i get no binding... so you guys might wanna give it a shot.

it runs a custom machined servo mount that uses the servo as the axle tube brace and a custom milled titanium plate drag link thats all but bullet proof

.

sorry for these crappy tiny pictures crappy pictures, ill try to get some better ones later tonight .
