I have a Turnigy 6000mah 60c that fits just fine. I just have to back out the wingnuts.

The last time I had my steering rack apart looking for the reason there was so much slop I too noticed that my metal sleeves were loose when inserted in their pockets. So, when I was re-assembleling I gave each sleeve a slight coating of shoe goo prior to inserting back in their locations. I let it dry overnight before installing back in the chassis and it was amazing how much less slop existed. Have run one night of racing and still no slop in that area.

If the surfaces are cleaned properly, there ain't nothing gonna get 'em back out again in any condition to re-use.
Shoe Gooing the block carrier bushings into the steering rack changes where wear occurs in the system.
It should be a one-time-only install/mod, but you have to pay attention to how you tighten the screws that hold the rack/servo saver to the steering rack. It's been a while since I was inside the steering system, but IIRC, the bushings keep you from overtightening the screws and binding the assembly, which means that the whole arm/bushing/screw remains at a fixed index and turns in the hole in the steering rack. Once you Goo the bushing in the rack, you can't tighten the screws like you would have, and the screws then turn in the bushing. That leads to the potential of the screws backing out of any compromised threads in the arm/servo saver because the assembly is no longer tensioned/torqued.
Perhaps a better 'fix' is to replace the worn steering rack.
I don't see to much shoe goo between the collar and steering block. The torque and pounding of the steering will wear the rubber out. It may last a while but I can't see it being permanent. Especially if people complain about the spring being too weak to handle the current setup.
