HI i recently installed this mod with the bearings, after driving it, i noticed that when i push on the brakes while turning the wheels turns to the opposite direction. is there anything i need to know? or have i done something wrong with it? thanks
:hammer:
 
Wow... that doesn't make sense at all!

Do you mean the wheels will steer in the opposite direction when applying the brake or that a tire lifts off the ground enough to spin backwards?
 
yeah it's weird. when making a turn and you apply the brakes, the truck would go straight. and i'm not enjoying it... :(
 
i'm not sure but it sounds like maybe the cam spring tension is set too light, and when the brakes are applied the cam spring is letting the wheels go back to center?
 
Yeah, that could be too. That's a good thought nevaren. I think I always have mine too tight so I've never ran into a "too loose" problem.

But when the tires bite down when you hit the brakes, they would fight the servo saver when turning.
 
Hello,

Just checked a fresh 25 RTR that comes with the cam servo saver as standard equipment. It's about five threads in.

Sounds like yours may be too loose.
