Default trf502 center one way

Hi Guys,
I used to run the TRF511 with center one way and it was great, do the 502 have similar product?
I can't even find a front one way.

Too bad.
Can't find a solution for the streering, already did the modification but it's not enough.
On a tight corner I turn like a bus.
Tried using different front tires but it effects general handling.
The trf511 with the center oneway was amazing, I need to change my driving for the 502, alot of breaking and sliding.
Any suggestions?
Guy

what you need is the steering link from JT models, or get the upgrade version from tamiya and add some spacers on the linkage side and you will have more steering, i race against 2wds on a super tight track and with the jt models steering link i have heaps of steering, almost too much in some places.

dont give up, its a great car when setup right.

Thanks for your reply,
I have the Tamiya upgrade and did lee's modification, but still turn worse than needed.
Where to put the spacers?

I'm using lee's setup, and flipped the Ackerman (dremeled the inside holes) , and added a 1mm spacer below the wheel steering apple.

My diffs are normal rear and tighter front.
Can't really explain it, maybe I'm just wanting too much from it.
The center one way(which tuned 50%) was amazing, and wanted the same for the 502.
