If you plan to run it through water again just replace with stock
I have a new never used one for $25 plus shipping if you live in the US
OK I GOT THE STEERING KIT FROM INTEGY AND IT WORKS VERY GOOD,BUT SOMETIMES AFTER STEERING THE WHEELS DONT GO BACK TO A STRAIGHT POINT.
SO WS NEXT ? UPGRADE SERVO? OR THE TRANSMITER SUCKS? OR BOTH?
AND CHICAGO THANKS FOR THE INFO
check and make sure your dragging the spine plate with the new steering assembly. I put in a integy in my sons as well and afyer he cracked it into the wall a few times it bent it , yes without knocking the servo saver out, and cause it to rub the chassis spine plate. we swithced over to the driven Products drag link from The Toyz and have had zeroe issues.
What a blast. Got one on the weekend. Created a "rally" type course from jumps on ozite carpet to hard word floor to create some form of icy course (read drifting...). Great little car for bashing out of the box. Great fun.
Having declining membership because of rising cost of rc racing (10 scale) could see this being a great starter class to introduce new membership.
