Default RE: Mini LST2 stock steering servo alternatives

ive been waiting for ages for the exotek to come into stock,i finally decided to build my own on the weekend,after alot of head scratching i came to a simple solution that bolts straight on and needs no chassis mods at all,i used 2 aliminum servo horns bolted one to the servo bolted the servo to peice of aluminum plate placed a bolt through the alloy with the nut on other side some shims.then idrilled the other horn out to fit a bearing each side slid it on the bolt.when i bolt the plate up to the existing chassis holes the 2 servo horns sit in the same position as the factory ones.link together with a couple of turn buckles and away you go.the steering is now rock solid and has hardly any slop.only draw back is one corner of the servo over hangs the chassis by about 1-2mm but for around 10-15 worth of horns and fittings i now have a solid steering set up
