Steering Problem
When I adjust the steering trim so that my truck goes straight ahead in one direction, and I turn it around to face me and gun the throttle, it will veer off to one side. I have checked the tie rods and they seem to be at equal lengths apart.
For example, I do a high-speed run in one direction, and the steering is perfectly centred. When I come back the other way, the steering will be way off and I have to turn a lot to keep the truck going straight.
Can someone please help me?

RE: Steering Problem
also just another thought make sure that your using the right servo horn it can be slipping or skipping on the servo when u turn, this happened to me before.

I checked my car just now and it turns out that one of the screws are loose. However, I cannot loosen one of the screws that hold the skid plate to the servo saver. I have tried heat, bit it just won't loosen...
