Rear steering on venom
 
Has anyone done the rear steering on the creeper?? I was thinking of just putting spools in the front and rear and adding rear steering to compensate. If you have done it I wouldnt mind knowing what you did, maybe see some pics of it.

I just finished putting rear steer on my venom tonite. I got the steering rods and servo plate off of eBay and I had a spare servo. You are going to need a 3 channel controler. Set up is easy, just build the rear the same as the front.
It sure makes it easy to get around in tight places

Yeah.. Are you running a spool or full lock front and rear??

vicsjeep 01-08-2010 10:13 PM

I'm locked front and rear.

Oh ok thats what im wanting to do.. Do you have any pics of your rear steer set up??

vicsjeep 01-09-2010 11:28 AM

Let me see if I can figure out how to post pics. When you set it up it should look like your front axle

rccrawlin2006 01-09-2010 02:49 PM

Yeah I was looking at it today. Looks like the servo mounting plate another servo, steering link and the longer bolt to bolt it to the knuckle. Is that sound about like what you did??

I did 4ws for about a week and got bored with it and took it off. It makes crawling too easy.

rccrawlin2006 01-09-2010 09:22 PM

Oh really.. It made it that easy.. I just figured it would help if you had both the front and rear locked all the time.. You runnin a spool.. or fully locked??

I have flm lockers front and rear.

Ok.. Yeah ive seen alot of people runnin those. I was gonna put a spool in the fron and rear. Then put in the rear steering to compensate for the loss of turn radius. I figured it would be better than running like a dig set up. But your saying that it isnt?
