cant turn left
while shooting some video of my car after replacing some tranny gears, i kinda lost controll... after a few tumbles and smacking into the side of a parked car my stearing is a little broke... as you can see from the topic my car wont turn left. from what i can see all of my exposed parts are in working order. im wondering where i should start looking now!
im exited for another tear down and re-build, so let me have it!
my car is a rustler 2-wheel drrive as you al know... if you need more info, let me know

RE: cant turn left
bit of an update... the car will turn left about 10% of the time... i just took it out for a few passes and right turns work great. left, not so great!
what might be wrong and how would i go about fixxing it

RE: cant turn left
it could be the gears in the steering servo. same thing happened to my jato. one side of one of the servo gears was stripped so I could only turn left. another possibility is that the servo box is broken where it is attached to the chassis. if the plastic is cracked then when u turn one way it could be fine but when u turn another way it would push the servo out ( this happened to my old rustler)

RE: cant turn left
sounds like you stripped some gears in the servo. take apart the servo and look at the gears. if you did strip them, it would be cheaper to just replace the gears rather than replacing the servo, in less you want a better servo
