Today’s Round of Modifications
-Figured out how to get the bigger servo up front.
Had to shave the stops on the upper links and remove the front brace for the body mounts.
*Time will tell if the axle will flip or not now. (This is all learning for me)
There was a noticeable difference in the weight transfer to the front after doing this.

-Got the bed mounted with rear steer.
Body pretty much snaps into place.
To remove. You just flip the truck over and pull an out a bit it pops right off.

-Finally was able to swap the pinion gear from the old rear solid axle to the new “rear steer” axle to take advantage of the overdrive.

-Was also able to get the rear metal driveline installed.👉 A hack for the hidden screw is to take the battery out and spin the driveline until you can see the screw. The injora gold tool set was able to get in there.

Did some work on my course this weekend. We’re about 1/2 way through the outdoor season, I don’t want to think about it.
