Hey Guys, I'm getting real close to completing the ET48AWS. Yep, that's All Wheel Steering. 
I just wanted to see what everyone's thought are on it. I just have a few more things to do to be able to run it. I've got it to have 0 bump steer and everything is super tight...has no steering slop. Everything looks like it's going to work perfect. I'll have more pics in the near future. It may be a couple of weeks before I can run it cause I'm still dealing with snow here. 
I will have video for you guys when I do get to run it.

Here is some more pics.
The front spindle carriers can't be used, they would produce a real bad negative caster which would no way work The steering linkage would also hit the arms. I pick up those aluminum carriers, but I had to modify them to get them to work. After modifying them they worked great though. These alu carriers are adjustable from a positive caster to a negative caster, which made this all possible and is also a pretty cool option to have.
If the truck preforms as good as I speculate I'm hoping Tekno will decide to make the 3 parts needed to make this available to everyone. The 3 parts...steering top plate, chassis brace and spindle carriers. If Tekno wants any help with this I would be glad to help. I'm sure they don't need any but figured I'd offer.

So for my servo voltage issue I was thinking of using the Novak glitch buster, but then I noticed most of the people seem to use a red little box looking kind of a thing. Is that also the same thing essentially? Can someone send me a link to that if possible? It seems to be very popular.
