Sorry for the late response.
I said that now turning the wheels to the right and left steering I have symmetrical steering. Finally, both wheels turn 24 ° degree externally and internally max 17 degree max. The arm of the servo saver beats on the steering columns, and limiting these values. I am aware that even affects ackermann, but I wanted to get at least 26 degrees of steering maximum, like many other models ..
I think that removing thickness above the steeringarms and using a shorter arm (of the servo saver), I could have more maximum angle.
How thick you have over the steering arms ? And how long is the servo lever from hole to hole?

Finally! two kits for 2 of my TCXX's
lots of cool changes. short shocks, towers shorter, lower deck is actually thicker than TCXX option chassis, and the motor mount is comparable to old tcx motor mount. Motor is raised higher and there is an extra mounting position. I have not tried it yet but it seems I can set pinion mesh without taking off the top deck.

Overall the the car with updates seems better and faster.
I'll be working on active rear tow next. I want to try what the XRay and Serpent have been toying with.
Basically running front arms/hubs/spindles in the back linked to the bulkhead.

If you will be able to reproduce the the xray and serpent ARS for our tcxx, please post a pic. That would be great! :-)

I tried to video it but can't really see the action.
I only did the Right side so far.

I don't have any "0" C hubs so I put a L side "4" on for now. Not sure what the 4 degrees will really affect in the rear.
One issue I noticed is that the shock mount isn't as far out on the arm so you would need a softer spring. I normally run Yokomo Blue
