What tranny do you use ?

On the KO Universe, there are two settings. Ones called steering travel. The other is steering balance. You can adjust these until you get full travel in both locks.

Are you using an aftermarket servo horn or steering rack ?

Does the outside wheel get to full lock ?

Do you get full lock with the servo disconnected?
It might help narrow down the issue before you refit the plastic rack.

Check the rack is the same length. The atomic ones are, but the akula ones wern't and maybe a few others.

Default Steering lock problem

When you say Exotek Steering Rack do you mean the Exotek Orange alloy steering cranks?

I've just fitted a pair and had to dremel the 3x6mm screws (704004, page 12 of manual) as they were catching the arms. Only by a small amount but enough to stop full traverse.

Will find out how they perform this weekend
