I kicked off the indoor season for myself today. With the upcoming Tamiya Euro Cup race in mind, I brought the TT-02s to the track. The track got new carpet and a new layout. I found a decent rhythm quite fast, but had to fight a little with the car. The rear was stepping out suddenly. I tried a lot of things without effect. Later in the day a little less droop and a reduction of the steering angle helped this problem. I then cured it by taking out 1mm of the rear inner camber link shims :sweat: After that I could increase the steering angle again and finally got some consistent runs :) https://abload.de/img/8801f24c-189f-4878-bk9k0h.jpeg By the way: Has anybody already driven the new Ford Mustang? Does it have a good performance? |

How did you extend the ball cup in the steering bridge? I also need the linkage to be in horizontal. If I don't put spacers in the bridge it's angled. And the steering radius is not even.
Can you post a picture of your steering setup, please. |

It is all just shims in combination with the Tamiya servosaver.
Can you post a picture of your steering setup, please. I notice an Alum bridge /diff mnt that ball cup attaches to.I know You make some parts too. Set up looks way better than the one I have Thanks, Ric |

The car consists of original Tamiya parts only.
I really don’t know what I did different, but here are more pics of the steering and front of the car: https://abload.de/img/1a95ff3d-6350-409a-88djgi.jpeg https://abload.de/img/d422236f-ca3c-4995-8yxjj6.jpeg https://abload.de/img/b8dd9d1e-eb14-455f-boxk6z.jpeg |

If you look at thercracer website in his guide he talks about steering for the TT02 and the parts needed to get what you're looking for.
Bear in mind it used to be that you needed to get several different hop ups to make it work but you don't anymore. Tamiya #54752 has all of it. It's way cheaper than buying the individual pieces separately. I actually let Craig/thercracer know and being the a cool guy that he is, he's updating his site. Seth |

They make some really long setscrews. That looks like the nut ballstud, so I supsect there's a 15mm (ish) setscrew in there.
