|  weak steering
i am using threaded rod (im not sure of the thickness but it is pretty thick, i had to drill out my traxxas rod ends to make them fit) for my steering link and it is easy to bend. i can grab both tires in my hands and turn one tire about 45 degrees with ease. i tried taking another piece of threaded rod and brazing it to the first one and now both of them still flex. Help!!!

you can try and put aluminum rod over the threaded rod and that might help a bit

3/8 Brake line works pretty well if you dont put too much of a bend to it and it cheap  |
