2. A short adjustable linkages.
3. 2 pcs long screw/nut to tighten on steering hub.
4. 2 same length post with servo hight.
5. 1 pcs spring servo horn.

| The long adjustable linkages each end tighten to steering hub at out side trade hold. The toe in and out still can adjusted. |
 |
| Need a lock nut at ball end. |
 |
| Add jam nut both side 1 pcs or 2 pcs. |
 |
| The length 12.5 inches also can use smaller because both end can be adjust. |
 |
| The steering rod no touching |
 |
| Change the servo horn to a spring type, it to prevent servo from damaged. (Over turning) |
 |
| Servo horn ball end i use long type and with a lock nut. |
 |
| The servo bracket. |
 |
| The height should same as servo or can get a short servo.. |
 |
| The short adjustable linkages ball end cup size depend on ball end use better small size. |
 |
| Each steering end tighten with nylon lock nut. |
 |
| If can get servo in shorten length is better or longer servo horn |
