popping up to wheel spin to pick up a new steering servo for the rear steer

[seanmcgrath48]

Arrived home late last night after being away in Dublin for a week..
A small parcel had arrived in the week from M1tchy ( Neil ) as he sold me a New Robinson Racing OutPut for my AX gear box
as I'd sheard the stock output the other weekend and lost half a drive shaft..




So today I stripped my AX and fitted the new Output gear   , just waiting on new set of JunFac drive shafts..

sean have you used scout trailing arms?

[big gaz]

sean use a small hex head screw instead of the grubs, gives you something a little meatier to tighten down.
