How's the servo saver spring set? I believe the manual specified 8mm. But I'd have to look again to be sure.

Now I thought I had set my end points rights and centered the servo, so I checked for any binding and it seemed free enough. My buddy threw me a super cheap servo that he got from who knows where and threw that in. That thing gave a valiant effort for about two laps and same thing. Well upon further inspection at home today the steering blocks/hubs are hitting the plastic rod end on the steering linkage only when the suspension is pretty well compressed. Anybody else experience this? I think I'm going to do some clearancing to remedy this but it kinda sucks that I even have too. My old nitro rc8 has the steering mod done to it and that sucker is as loose and free as can be at full compression. Anyway just semi venting and looking for some insight.
