STEP 8

All parts needed for STEP 8. The manual also ask you to use the chassis for this step but I found out it is better to mount these parts to the chassis in a later step.
Take these parts and slide them over the tube with the hexagon top. Make sure the hexagon top fits snugly in the plastic lever arm.
Now put the saver spring on and place the nut on it.
Press the nut with your finger and keep with your other hand the bottom part. Try first to find the start of the thread before turning it on. The thread is very fine and can be damaged easily.
This is the finished servo saver. The manual does not state how much the spring need to be compressed. I left it 2 m/m from the bottom. It might be to soft but you can always raise the tension.
The steering slide bar need to be fitted with two flanged 6x10 m/m ball bearings.
Make sure you put them at the correct side. The bearings need to be flush with the surface of the steering slider bar. This is what we call the top of the steering slider bar.
When the bearings are in this is how the other side (bottom) looks like this.
Now fit the those two special screws through the top side of the steering slider bar.
Turn it over and place at each screw an 5x10x0.5 m/m shim washer.
Place the two steering levers through the screws. Watch the way the steering slider bar is placed.
Put a 3x8x0.5 shim washer on the screw. 
Place an 3 m/m lock nut on top of each screw and secure it.
This is how the whole steering system should look like.
We do not mount the four 6x10 m/m ball bearings in the steering levers yet. It is better  to place them in a later stage.
