Naptime Posted June 8, 2023 Share Posted June 8, 2023 Hi All Long story short. I've bought the wrong truck so, I'm trying to turn my absima CR3.4 crawler into a bouncer. Problem is I'm destroying steering servos. Snapping the heads clean off. Gone through 3 in 2 days like, less than a hours driving. Admittedly they where cheap servos with brass heads. I do have 22mm wheel spacers on my 2.2 wheels. I have seen a YT vid that suggests wheel spacers are terrible for servos (and wheel swoop). I do like the spacers and my truck needs them for the 2.2's to clear the truck, HELL even the stock wheels had way to much wheel rub for my liking! I have a Power HD in the post that looks to have a steel head, paid aboot £35 so i'll see how long that one lasts. American Bouncer forums are suggesting servos WAY out of my price range. I was advised to remove the steering damper from the truck as they break servo heads but, I think I'm going to put it back on? (I'm starting to think these are just ***** trucks 😞 So.. before I buy an expensive servo, what's the opinion on the wheel spacers breaking the sevo heads, should I get rid go smaller sapcers, smaller wheels, are wider axles availible for the CR3.4. Should i look into a servo saver (i was advised against them)?? Thanks in advance for any opinions and help (complete newb since Jan 23) Jonathan Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
