Outlaw Posted December 26, 2018 Share Posted December 26, 2018 Good morning all, Ive just noticed that my Slash has a couple of millimetres play in the steering, just on the toe, not the camber of the wheel. Is this normal for an unmodded slash or has it occurred in the 5 times that Ive used it? I must admit Ive been quite rough with it. Is it just a case of parts fitted to meet a price point and I should expect to upgrade the servo or the steering linkage as a matter of course?

daveyboi73 Posted December 27, 2018 Share Posted December 27, 2018 There is usually a bit of play even in rtr models yes. If it really becomes a problem where it affects steering trim etc then there are upgrades as well. With a 2wd slash, adding 4x 5x8x2.5 bearings to replace the stock pastic bushings will increase response and reduce slop in a bit too 1 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Outlaw Posted December 28, 2018 Author Share Posted December 28, 2018 Thanks Dave, it's not affecting the steering, it's something that I just noticed while cleaning it. Always a good way to get to know a vehicle, cleaning it intricately. As long as it's normal out of the box that's fine, I may mod the slash in the future as it's my secondary vehicle, my crawler (when I get it) will be my primary vehicle and that's where I want to put my money into mods and upgrades. The slash is for the hooligan in me. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
