If there's no way to do it mechanically then possibly a reversing y harness can be had or made that reverses just one servo.

You need a "y" harness with a reverser .Their are only 3 way to set up four wheel steering.
1. With a 2 channel radio with 1 servo
2. with a 2 channel radio and a reverse "Y" harness. 2 servos for steering.
3. A 4 channel radio. 2 servos independant for steering.

I have used all three and if you want true 4 wheel steering then option 3 is the best

Actually, the other way is to use two servos that rotate in different directions stock.

For instance, Hitec and Futaba servos rotate in opposite directions. Find one of each with the same specs and you're set.

This can be used for 4WS when only a two channel radio is used:

Neither will work for his problem. Only a servo reverser "Y" harness will. The Expert one is the cheapest @ $8.50 [8D]
