Sharper Steering ?
I was wondering how to make my Revo turn sharper. I haven't made any changes and I do still have a stock radio. I have heard some stuff on putting in a center diff. Any Ideas. Thanks.

RE: Sharper Steering ?
If you want ultra sharp steering that rivals that of the smaller faster buggies, you can do what I did. Check out the pictures to see how it works.
Remove the steering stop piece altogether.
Install an aluminum lower steering brace such as the ones sold by RD Racing.
Install aluminum axle carriers in the front two axles (i used intejunk cause they are cheap)
Dremel out the Axle carrier pillow ball housings like i did to allow for greater movement.
Install a longer servo horn for greater steering movement and faster speeds.(make sure your servo is strong enough for this)
Finally, steer like a champ.
Here you can see the aluminum steering brace and the absence of the stop.
Here you can see the increased turning allowed by these modifications
Here you can see the dremel work done to the pillow ball housings.
