Thanks!
Use the Awesomatix Servo horns (or something very close to it in length) to have the proper length. Steering drag-link should just clear the underside of TopDeck when at 'center'. This will give you maximum throw, given you have you endpoints adjusted correctly..

You also want to make sure (when looking from above) that you space the drag-link at the servo horn so that its completely inline with the Sliding SteeringRack, as this also effects total steering throw, ever so slightly.

After that its 'setup' to get more/less rotation out of the car..
