Problem: steering bellcrank fouls propshaft... - 02.03.2007, 12:47 PM

Hi. I've been bust building up my new gorillamaxx, but have come across a rather serious problem. At full throw the steering bell crank arm that attaches to the turn buckle & then the servo horn/saver fouls the front propshaft- by quite a bit. It seems to be at just the right height to push the shaft over to one side ( its not attached to the diff yet- no bulkheads). There's no way to lower the bellcranks without some major bodging, so the only alternative is to adjust the amount of left & right throw on the radio (I have a lazer 6). Has anyone had similar problems, any suggestions/ help would be greatly appreciated. I have the G2 chassis & G3 racing skids, and the GPM alloy steering bellcranks.

I have considered getting some nice skinny cvds which would solve the problem, but I dont want to go spending too many more ££/$$.
