    I bought these Meus axles and am having trouble figuring out the steering. I believe that I am missing some steering end pieces. Maybe a video on how to put these Meus axles and steering together because I can’t find any information about it. Love your work, entertainment for hours and hours.

      True, but they made it happen, and apparently did it to good effect. Some times innovation is just applying current tech to new applications. Still very cool.

    Hay, I put these on my meus mb24. In the front, there is some weird movement. If i lay it on its back & run it, on every rotation, the axle kind of jumps up. I've checked the tightness of everything & it all moves freely & no binding. I have already put some udder butter in there... I'm at a loss. Do you have any ideas?
