Status: offline 		I just got a new RC18MT. I am reading about the steering issues.

I am hearing get a stronger servo, and upgrade the server saver with metal bushings. What else will help?

What about the turning radius? Can it be made smaller? Would narrower tires on the front help? I won't be racing or using in sand very often.

Also, can you do a suspention or body life a bit. It rides too low for a Monster truck.

Status: offline 		definatley get an MG servo
as for the turning radius, make the front diff very stiff, and loosen up the rear diff
as for the tires, it may or may not work, if it works on 4wd buggies it may work for a mini
get another pair of rear shocks and put them up front, and stick the shocks at the "highest" settings, just a warning, the car will be much more un-stable on "high grip" surfaces
