You should turn the steering plate around the angles should be facing forward .............ackerman angles you know ...
Law 1 i can get those but the price is ridiculus like 50 dollars plus shipment.

well i added another zx to my collection this week :roll: so i thought i would spend some time on my CF zxr runner before it arrives it was in need of a major service .
i replaced the rear belt, lubed and rebuilt the diffs, just the general lube job and something that was long overdue replaced all the rod ends with rpm ends 8) .
and also changed out the front hubs and carriers with new ones from a HPI super nitro it all went together quiet quickly the inner bearing is over sized but excepted another bearing inside it to except the original zx uni,s (61mm) . the front hubs are easy to get hold of plus it gives you a multiple choice of caster options i opted for 8 degrees it makes the steering pretty crisp even the quick go in the rain was miles better than before .

the second upgrade was fitting the hyper drive belt spur and pinon i started with 66 spur and 20 pinion oh so smooth and silent as well it reminds me of a hybrid Prius just tire noise.
