I'm using a Hitec 625MG servo. It does turn all the way left and right (on 2.2's) but not all that quickly. I'm generally satisfied with this servo over a standard Futaba S3003. | |

I have a HiTec 5955 on the front of mine, it works OK, until you have a wheel bound up, then it wont turn it either. If you have the diffs locked, you are fighting all 4 wheels when you turn, with no differential action, the tires will have to scrub.

Chassis twist is completely normal- stiffer springs and/ or a different suspension setup may help. What are you doing with the truck exactly- planning on modding it into a crawler or just general bashing around? The 'arm-like things' are sway bars to reduce the tendency for the inner wheel to lift when turning. Have some inspiration for mods... http://www.robotwars.00server.com/txtproject.html http://robotwars.00server.com/projectmulligan.html thats if bashing is your thing, otherwise you have alot of reading to do on the subject of crawling- lots of threads with great info ( they wont read themselves  )...
