Oops...did I do that?
Uhmmmm...I woke up this morning and the front of my truck was over my head on the shelf. As im starring under it I see that there isnt a screw holding the steering together...then as i looked closer there WAS a screw...just no head![:@] So can I still run the truck or not? I mean, It can turn and all But will it slide out? help. [

RE: Oops...did I do that?
I would disassemble the truck and try to get the screw body out. something like that can cause more breakage later. better to spend the time now replaceing a screw then alot more time later replaceing multiple parts (esp if your steering fails and sends you into a solid object.)

Alrighty, I got it. Luckily the screw had .5mm sticking out and I dremeled it out...then slowly used screw driver. Its all good now...wish I did know how i did that though. The steering is a simple setup so it was easy to disassemble and put back together.
