Is it just me or is there a lot of slop in the 10t steering? Have just got my runner up together for the start of the vintage class at my local club and it seems no end of shims spacers etc will sort it out!
Any recommendations, or is there another servo saver assembly available that will suit?
The steering arms from the B2/B3/T3 also fit, but the servo needs to be turned 90 degrees to work.
You can only remove so much play from the steering; even with the bearings and hinge pins perfectly tight, there are still 8 ball and rod end connections. A seemingly imperceptible amount of play in each becomes a lot when you multiply it by 8, and that seems exaggerated when you put a truck tire on there. A little bit really isn't a problem.
Hi... I'll post a picture of my truck when I get a chance. I've upgraded the bellcranks to the ball bearing setup, but there's still a lot of sloppiness compared to my xxxnt. I know the xxxnt is a way more modern truck, but I think its a combination...

The bearing upgrade is pretty nice, but some of the wear ends up in the tips where the small screw goes.. although being new this should be minimized at this point :)
is there any out there for the 10t that use the long 8-32 screws like the buggy? i know the rpm bellcranks would work for what i'd need, but lotsa luck trying to find those. mip's would probably work, but they suck. how about the composite craft...

all of daryl's a&l/factory works steering kits used the same yellow plastic bellcranks. the only diffrence in the kits were the sector arm and the drill template included with some kits to relocate the 'cranks where needed. i bought a kit one time...
So I am running my Rc10t with the turnigy 1258tg with a reported 13.5 kg of torque.
At a complete standstill on pavement the front wheels are challenged and don’t fully turn. When driving it seems fine.
Should the wheels freely, or fully, turn...

The problem was the second servo saver I was using. I was using servo an older kimbrough servo saver instead of a servo horn. I swapped up to a standard piece of plastic and all is well now.
But it sounds like anywhere from 5-10 kg is going to be...
Who has used this RC10T to T2 steering conversion kit and does it work well enough over stock to justify the cost? I'm not currently in need to replace the old stock servo saver setup, but trying to plan for possible future breakage, and given the...
My current servo saver is a sloppy mess. I need something nice and accurate which is Futaba compatible. Any suggestions? Black would be a bonus...

The high-torque Tamiya unit I installed in the OptiMutt car along with the Tamiya ballraced bellcrank has zero slop. This one has 3 metal rings, not the weak spring I've seen in their kit-included savers. It's actually a bit of a pain to force that...
Lately I've developed (re-developed) a bit of a stadium truck fetish. My buddy and I had a pair of stadium trucks briefly when we were in college. I had a Losi LXT that I bought used with my high school graduation money, and not long after he bought...

This week I made a little bit of progress. I'm using the original chassis for now until I can find a better one. I want to find an earlier B stamp with only the offset holes, but for now, this one is going to suffice. It's pretty clean, and would be...
