Steering bellcrank issue

Alright my rc10t has an issue the screw that holds the bellcrank is stripped out, is there an easy solution to this, the only fix I've seen is use rc10 steering in the front holes. I hate the sloppy steering it has right now with the little play in the bellcrank as it moves slightly.

so you mean the nose plate is loose also, the threads in the noseplate are stripped?

the only thing that would work for the stripped noseplate would be to use either a nut on the screw, on both, then put your bellcranks on, or find a ball bearing steering setup that sandwichesthe chassis with a shoulder nut to do the same thing.

if you just stick a nut under the bellcranks, you might have to adjust your ball ends to get rid of bumpsteer.
