| shimmed the stock steering
after a failed attempt to mod the GPM steering kit, i threw it away yesterday. i did find that the thin tabs the batteries plus has for building packs makes a perfect shim for the stock down tube. i didnt take any pics, but the battery tab wraps around the down tube and with a little wiggling it will fit in the hole in the chassis. i still got some play in the stock ball ends, but its only about half of what it had stock |

havent tore it apart yet, but its pretty easy, the tabs from batteries plus are .13mm thick, wrap a couple around the tube that goes through the chassis, and stick it all in the hole. gonna take some work to get em in, but not to bad to do |
