You will be able to feel the binding if its present on your car while tightening and loosening the screws. Also the screws on the bottom side of the steering rack shouldn't be too tight either. The bell cranks should flop back and forth loose. If you have a metal geared servo you can glue the steering rack. The larger of the two bell cranks is the servo saver. When you pull the bell crank apart, there is a nut on top with the bearing in it. This nut compresses a spring that holds the two halves of the bellcrank together until force is applied (impact with a marshals hip, for example ). Take it all apart and put some CA on the contact points between the two halves so they can't rotate against each other. Reassemble it with the nut, washer and spring. It definitely makes the buggy and especially the trucks feel more direct when cornering. Hope this helps.
