Im giving it another try after a whole year of collecting dust. I will say i probably got one of the most crappy twin hammers ever made it has been a pain in the ass since day one. heres some history with the car
-Replaced hex hub 2 times
-shift servo went bad got a replacement
-found front shock rig that holds the spring in place busted. when with gcm up right shock tower mount and some gmade xd piggyback shocks
- Then transmission started to make a weird ticking noise when accelerating havent fixed it yet. tore it apart everything looked fine
- then steering when wack would only turn right or left can recall no matter how much i adjusted my end points would only turn one way thats my main issue im not sure how to fix it. I did have a spektrum s605 i pluged in just to see if the servo was the issue and it does the same thing?? only steers one way

I did order tonight a bell crank steering set up and a Savox SW-0231MG servo but dont thing that will fix my issue so looking for help. This is my first rc car and hasnt been anyhting but a money pit! to far invested to stop now i guess. Any help please?? sorry if i used the wrong terms for some stuff
 
With the servo arm disconnected, does the servo swing left and right correctly?
This will narrow down if it is a mechanical or radio/electrical issue.
 
no it didn't only one way figured out the issue last night it was the transmitter has a bad connection in the wiring can you believe that. Now figure out the transmission clicking noise lol
 
I'd say debris in the gears. The tiniest bit of grit lodged in a tooth will make all sorts of problems.
Glad you sorted the steering issue!

Ive taken it apart twise and found nothing so the next step im looking at is going with the metal gears and new shafts. Do you have any recomendation for tires i feel that the stock ones arent enough
