Earthquake Servo Saver Problem
Is there a fix to this or another option for the servo saver arm? The screw for the steering link keeps popping off the servo saver. This is the second arm that hasdone this, the plastic keeps stripping. It's annoying too because I have the take the top cover off every time to fix it.

RE: Earthquake Servo Saver Problem
I tried a 4-40 screw with a nylon nut but because the profile between the arm and the servo is slim, the nut hits the base of the servo. Has anyone used this part? I was wondering if it held up better.

RE: Earthquake Servo Saver Problem
Hey from the pic It looks like (but it is hard to tell) the MPO-11 link in the pic looks like it is in upside-down If it is it will hit the chassis and prob cause it to rip the screw out. The tabs on the MPO-11 link should point up and the tie rods sit on top. The link installed in the truck will sit like a letter U Not like a lower case n . ( The out side ends of the MPO-11 link point up ) IF you have any probs give me a buzz.

RE: Earthquake Servo Saver Problem
The picture is deceiving, the steering link is facing up like a U.
I think I'm going to have to get a flat head screw to handle the slim clearance between the arm and the servo.
Right now the nut is on the bottom. The nut hits the servo and the head of the screw catches on the upper deck.
I do have the screw on the outer hole of the arm, I was hopping to get a better turning radius. I might just have to put the screw in the other one.
