Thumbs up

I'd just get 4 ball nuts, 4 ball cups, & a throttle linkage that's threaded on both ends. Also might want to change out the servo arm to something that has a hole on each side. Maybe like this:

Could also just use 2 ball nuts & 2 ball cups, then put a Z bend in the linkage.

Z bent wire to the left steering arm. Simple and light, you have to make it the right length, though. Or you could do it like the tie rod. Be slightly heavier but a lot easier.

that'll work. z bends are a lot nicer looking finished product, though.
