Hi guys,

I found I had some Houge sealed bearing servo saver steering arms (which I believe are the same as A&L) and I was wondering, as this is all I have, if someone could tell me what else I need to make them work?

I used to have an A&L but...

While building my latest vintage runner, I went in search of a readily-available ball bearing steering setup. Since the old standby MIP RC10 steering kit had been discontinued, I needed to find another solution. I looked at parts from some of the...

Ok, that makes this kind of pointless now IMO. I just don't think chasing down hard to find parts is worth the slight cost savings.

Last post

The only ones I seen is from MIP vintage stuff. I was using the stock ones on my RC10T Duratrax conversion until I seen these on Ebay.

I use an A&L steering and made a custom front adjustable bracket.
Just some of the options you can do.

I have a B-stamp project that is getting closer to a ready-to-build pile of parts, and the theme will include white AE mostly nip bits. I would rather not do the OEM steering, but want to preserve the white theme. The Houge steering and Worlds...
