I milled the steering link out of 3/8 square bar aluminum. It also serves as a bumper.

Some pics of the new set-up

The flat bottomed chassis has been bent up on both sides for clearence and looks and the links were moved in. The rear got a new 4 link that has no side to side movement. The front still has a little. The tranny has been rotated 180* so I don't have to reverse the motor anymore.

The body has been lowered and hacked to better fit the chassis. Also, I cut out the front fenders, moved them up half an inch and screwed them in place.
