Default Dual servo steering on a T-Maxx 3.3?

As some of you may know, I am working on my 3.3 maxx right now, and I am planning on making it forward only. I was looking at it earlier and noticed that I could mount two servos under the truck to steer if I would make a mount for them and do a little work on the chassis to make room for screws. If i did this, couldn't I use two cheap lower torque servos rather than 1? Is there a way to hook up the linkages to make it work? If I need to make something, that isnt a huge problem since I have access to a machine shop at school, the only question is how to make it work...
Any ideas?

Default RE: Dual servo steering on a T-Maxx 3.3?

There is a reason that most Revo owners switch to one steering servo, weight savings and the extra linkage is just something else to adjust or break. One good high torque servo works perfect with a Tmaxx, no need for two, unless you just want to try it. In that case take a look at the new steering and servo saver on the E-maxx, might give you some ideas. JMO
