Servo mount brace
 

I have noticed that the axle braces where my servo mounts attatch to seems to rotate a little from the torque.

Has anyone made some type of brace for it??

Heres what i did, i used on of the pieces i hacked off my TXT drilled and tapped it. I have been running hard like this for a while w/ no problems!:twisted:

That works.....I run something very similar....just a little leg that runs down to one of the axle tube screws.

Contact thecrawlerstore.com and get some of the shock mounts for the stick. They tie to the servo mount then to the axle and will fix the problem

Thats pretty much what I had in my head.
Ill have to give that a try.

I use a 25mm screw running through the plate with a nut on the bottom side of the plate to sandwich it. That connects to a Traxxas rod end on a 25mm long axle tube screw. Sorry I dont have a close up pic right now.

servo brace
 

just solved that problem on mine tonight. I used 1"x1/8" aluminum angle cut to fit. one side bolted to upper link mounts, the other to the servo mount I'd send pics but I don't have a digital camera yet

Thanks for the ideas.
I ended up take a old maxx steering link cut it, then bent it and welded it to the axle brace. No more flex8)

Grizzly4x4, do you have a buildup for the wildoats jeep or some more pics? That is awesome looking :shock: I remember seeing that jeep way back in the day in a few magazines, it always caught my eye "thumbsup"

i did my servo the same way you guys did but ended up taking it out, thanks for the ideas guys"thumbsup"
