18T Steering Servo Problems

One other little issue I ran into using the Screw kit.
The caps are a little taller on the after market screws. The only place it interferes is on the top set of the front shock tower. they stick out just enough to touch the adjustment ring on the front shocks keeping them from moving freely when adjusted to the top 1/3rd of the shock.

Fix:
Place a small spacer / washer behinds the top shock mount ball studs.

Thanks for the tip! That would explain the abundance of washers that came with the kit I had no idea for what reason. Sometimes I can't see the forest for the trees...... Thanks again Ed.

So far I have installed the larger servo using a little glue.
An old servo horn from the junk box did the direct link trick no magic.
