The e revo will only turn one direction and sometimes when i try to turn it the other way it makes a clicking noise, i dont know whats wrong with with it. help!
 
if you disconnect the linkage from the servo do the wheels move side to side freely with no binding? If so then most likely a bad servo. When you have the linkage disconnected turn the kit on and turn the steering wheel on the TX left and right and see if the servo is turning smoothly in booth directions. If it doesn't then you know for sure however if it does that doesn't neccessarily mean the servo is good. If it were stripped it could spin fine with no load but you put a load on it and it could have that problem.
 
The servo works fine. I disconnected it and the wheels still dont turn. It feels like it is jammed or something.
 
May be that the ball connection at the lower A arm is screwed to far into the A-arm, causing a restriction when turning.
 
People are still google-ing their way to solutions. Me being one of them. Found this thread as the only one addressing this issue but not providing a solution. Maybe a dumb solution but a solution nevertheless.
I was just trying to give something back to the community and the next one who comes by. Tomorrow or in 9 years.
