Step #7: Thread one 4-40 X 5/8" BH Screw thru the front of
the Shock Tower in remaining upper holes that mount the
Shock Tower to the Suspension Mounts. On the backside of
the Suspension Mount, slide the Ball End from the Camber
Link onto the 5/8” BH Screw and fasten to the car with (1) 4-
40 Lock Nut. The finished assembly should look like that in
Figure #14.

Step #4: Install the Steering Rack
Slide into the Steering Rack with
the raised hole on the Steering
Rack Slide to the RIGHT. The
Steering Rack Slide should move
FREELY in the Rack. If it does not, check for flashing on the slide OR pry open the
Rack with your fingers. You should now have the Steering Assembly built as seen in
Figure #16.
Steering Assembly
Step #1: Press the Pivot Balls into the #5214 Ball End, then thread the Ball Ends
onto each end of the #5221 Turnbuckles. When completed it should look like the
Steering Links in Figure #15. Make 2 of these.
Step #2: Assemble the Steering Links on each
end of the #3207 Steering Rack Slide using (1) 3/
8" 2-56 SH Screw with (1) #2 Washer between
the screw head and Ball End. Insert (1) 2-56
Locknut into the hexagon hole on the backside of
the Steering Rack Slide and tighten the 3/8" 2-56
SH Screw to it. Refer to Figure #15 for example.
Step #3: On the remaining turnbuckle thread (1) #5228 ball end and (1) #5229 ball
end, these are the two shortest ends in the bag. Now install the Servo Linkage to the
raised hole on the #3207 Steering Rack Slide using (1) 1/2" 2-56 SH Screw with (1) #2
Washer on each side of the Ball End. Insert (1) 2-56 Locknut into the hexagon hole on
the backside of the #3207 Steering Rack Slide and tighten the 1/2" 2-56 SH Screw to it.
Refer to Figure #15 for example.
NOTE: You will need to adjust the length of all of these rods after the car is
completely assembled and your radio is installed.
Step #5: Mount the now completed Steering Assembly to
the chassis using (2) 3/8" FH Screws.
Step #6: Mount the Steering Links to each Steering
Block using (1) 3/4" 2-56 SH Screw with (1) # 5232
Coned Spacer between the pivot ball and steering arm.
The cone faces up toward the pivot ball as shown in
Figure #17. Fasten the 2-56 screw to the steering arm
with (1) #2 Washer and (1) 2-56 Lock Nut.
