Step 16
We now are going to make two steering rods.
Take the left/right thread turnbuckles and ball ends and lay them down as
the picture shows.
Note the marking groove in the center and how they are positioned..
Turn the ball ends on the left/right thread
turnbuckles and make the distance in-between the red lines 30 mm.
Press the 3 mm balls in the ball ends using a
pliers.
Note the red lines marking the ball ends that need to be fitted on the
steering bar.
To prevent the steering rods rubbing
against the steering bar we need to use these coned bushings.
Slide a 3 x 16 mm countersunk hexagon screw
through the ball and then the coned washer as the picture shows.
Smaller part is pointing to the ball.
Fit the 3 x 16 mm countersunk hexagon screw
in the middle hole of the steering bar and secure it with a 3 mm lock nut
using a 5.5 mm wrench and a 2 mm hexagon tool. Watch the coding groove.
Do the same for the left hand steering rod
making sure the right placement of the groove in the left hand side
steering rod.
Attach the front chassis brace to the servo saver top plate with a 3 x 12
mm round head hexagon screw using a 2 mm hexagon tool at the red marked
spot.
Nice the car comes
with left/right thread turnbuckles.
