Default TRF502 Blue steering bridge 84230

Has anybody bought one of these yet?

Would anybody like us to stock these at JTmodels? Rough price will be around £19.99 (ish)

Is this bridge able to give the same range of steering as the original when it's flipped. Jamies bridge can run either kit settings or the refinement that Lee came up with.

this part is the same as standard. you cannot flip it, but you can just space the ballstud forward a lot more as its stronger and wont snap.
i use this and space my ball stud forward 4mm.

there will always be enough lock what the difernce is how much akerman effect you can achive to be fair the car generates so much on the front end it seems to work as standard as lee said space it forward 4mm it clearly works.
