Just installed my 20* C's. The tire tilt is amazing! Can't wait to run them. One thing I did notice is that my servo makes alot of noise toward the end of the wheel movement. I have my end points set well and I don't think anything is binding. Anyone noticed this sort of thing?

Is your drag link hitting the axle in the middle, where the bearing and fake bolt heads are?

No, used the dremel to take care of that. The way I set EP is to watch the tires and turn the EP up 'til I dont see any more movement, is that right?

Then back it off until the buzzing stops, or you see one click of movement away from the mechanical stop.

I watch where the steering link comes to the C, is there somewhere else that I should watch?

Nope, that's pretty much it, as long as the drag link isn't contacting anything. Either way, back off the EPAs until the buzzing stops.

I got the RCBros OTA steering link to work with the 20* C's. Just ground the link and the bushings down some where they mount to the knuckles.

Ok, here are a few pics I took tonight. I've ran this setup in 2 comps so far and it's done great. The OTA link clears everything and I can turn until the knuckles hit the C's without any binding or contact with anything. Need to get a couple shorter screws for the OTA link. |

Looks great, definitely keep us updated. Would definitely be interested in high clearance knuckles and OTA for the 20* C's. What I have now works, but that looks even better.

I've been running stock links since I got the truck and I'm thinking of adding spacers to get to a 12.5" wheelbase. Are there going to be any disadvantages caused by the 20* C's or anything else?

Nope, I stretched my wheelbase and run the 20s. Love it.
