New steering parts
 
Will they allow for more steering lock? I've been struggling with a larger turning circle than I'd like.

They certainly look the business though, are these available now?

They will help get the inside wheel in the car to lock more, chill the car out into a turn and give more through the turn.

There will also be a longer cross link available that will increase lock, however i always take a little material away from the chassis to allow the arms more travel.

I've been running the protos for a while and ran these new ones today! they are slighlty better than the prototypes as these ones are orange :thumbsup:

The longer cross-link (2mm longer) was in use this weekend at The Players - thanks to Kev K.

These new arms are also a slightly revised ackerman. They should help make the car less darty at speed and give more pivot through the corner.

do we know a price for these yet?

Panic 30-03-2009 09:06 PM

The ones availabe are for stick pack layout, but i think Lewis will be producing both types. I believe he has a fair few in the first batch, but get your order in quick to make sure you get some!

They are a definate improvement over the standard ones :thumbsup:

Panic 30-03-2009 09:20 PM

i guess we dont have a part nr yet? need to call lewis and order over the phone right?

KevLee 30-03-2009 09:23 PM

Not sure about part number... best bet is as you say, give Lewis a call and he'll sort you out

Mrs.TeamXtreme 30-03-2009 09:32 PM

Or if its easier and saves you time email us and we'll sort it out for you. They will be available on the web tomorrow - hopefully :thumbsup:

I should imagine with a new link it'll be about £50.
