Thanks for sharing. I upgraded my 3s Typhon with an aluminum bellcrank and it really helped. You always make it look so easy. Great job covering all the details involved. 🤩
Thanx for the compliment and returning to the channel. Ya, it s a decent upgrade and really bought it upon curiosity. I havn t really tested it yet but i was really happy with the stock bellcrank, but with shimming. I have a vid on it too, really effective. 🤜🤛
Man thanks so so much for this tutorial! I ordered the same part few days ago but I haven’t installed yet. Awesome job. Super easy to follow. I’ll proceed to install my steering system :D
I'm refreshing my senton right now might have to spring for one of these looks like a good improvement over stock 👍i put the hot racing aluminum balls kit on mine it replaces all the plastic link pivot balls and really takes the slop out. They were even a little too tight at first but after a lot of running they are still nice and tight. Cools stuff i enjoy your video and commentary style! Another good Canadian rc yourtube channel 👍🤘🔥🇨🇦
This is a cheaper mod that works well, but you can shim the stock bellcrank with same results! I leave my link. Also, the Hot Racing balls work great… for a bit. Being aluminum, they wear fast. I have a cheap mod for the next time you need pivot balls. Thanx alot for watchin! Appreciate the compliments! ua-cam.com/video/rPMqxy3GMtE/v-deo.htmlsi=J0kuuRrX97N_lFaB
Im so happy to see this cuz i saw that the other day and i just bought the same thing for my tt02 and i was thinking i want to do the same to my Senton thanks man
Good install. Looks like a worthwhile upgrade. I'd prefer to use a silicone grease like Sil Glyde on those plastic diff ring gears. That red petroleum based stuff can soften plastic teeth. To each their own, I guess.
Followed step by step today to install mine on my arrma Vorteks. Thanks for a quality video, my man. Also, just a question. Do you find any benefit/drawback to running without the chassis runners(walls), or did you take them off for install? Thanks in advance!
Good installing video! Why did actually changed to a metal one? I have been pretty happy with the stock plastic steering bellcrank which is shimmed according to your instructions :)
Ah man, thanks so much. Honestly, I bought it out of curiosity. I ve been messing around with my Typhon on a big outdoor track, so I m waiting for winter to end! Thanx brother. I love your bash vids
@@phillybrc thank you! :) I had a Hot Racing steering bellcrank on my Big Rock but it got loose after a while. So I went back to stock one. I hope the one you installed works as new for a long time.
@@phillybrc all good mate, busy with life at the moment so having trouble to get content up at the moment .... also the weather isn't working with me the last weeks ... but with these famous words i say " i'll be back" LOL hope everything is good with you to 👊
I did this upgrade on mine still has a lil slop but if u put rubber o rings over the brass bushings and on the top of the studs where the bearings are it will eliminate all the slop
We all know a little bit of slop with a basher is a good thing and can prevent parts from breaking, it’s just not nice to look at and feel when your admiring a nice RC.
This is true! But I feel play in the bellcrank makes it harder to drive straight and hit ramps! I have plenty of slop in the wheels, stub axles and turnbuckles to protect me HAHAHA Thanks for commenting.
when my car is on even with stiff servo for sterring, I get bell crank movement side to side how do I stop this, I shims th crank but you still have bearing movement???
This bellcrank fits my 4s Outcast v2.5 and if I'm not mistaken the 4s Kraton has the same chassis setup just a longer wheelbase. But while installing, it does look like the joints is gonna hit the chassis when turning, but once everything is tighten down it clears with no issues or binding. I've ran a few packs in it already.
@@angkorpeck that’s very interesting! How much did you have to limit your endpoints? I ended up using the ackerman from this, but the chunky pieces with the bearings in them I kept stock. Interestingly, this configuration actually had the least slop vs: all stock / all upgrade
Nice, I broke my bellcrank and arm running into a tree and I picked up the same Amazon special bellcrank, very detailed instructions.
Thanx! It s a good unit! No complaknts here!

Yeh I should check that out. I struggle in that department as well. @@phillybrc
I will check it out. My Granite needs some tlc and if a shim is all it takes. I'm there...@@phillybrc

Oh cool! Hope you enjoy. I m liking it so far, let me know how you like the bellcrank…or the video haha.
More videos please
@@arrma_apoclypse8179 thanks alot. Any topics in mind?
Nice tutorial! I'll be getting my first plastic rig soon and I deff need to get up to speed lol
Thanks brother, I can help you out there. The plastic rigs are still really fun. Just easier sometimes
Good to see another vid mate .... Cool upgrade for sure .
Thanx man, appreciate you stoppin in.
Love your videos! Thanks so much sharing brother 🙏
AAAAAAAAAA! ❤️
Good job on this mod bro!!!! Keep the vids coming!!!!
Peace!!!
Thanx for coming by, PEACE!
cool aluminum bellcrank and install
Thanx my man

Thanks, it s working real well. I will look into the Sil-Glide. Happy Holidays
Ya, i agree . I feel it would be an eternity. Oh well, i like it. Thanx
Better steering is only without servo saver
another great tutorial
Thank you

I definitely run them . I removed them to not block the camera. Thank you.
great job champ💪😎

@@NBRC I get it my friend, I am putting out very little and the RC budget is low. See you when you return. 😊Happy Holidays.
@@phillybrc Happy holidays to you to

you dont have to shim metal crank like stalk one???
I havn t tried to be honest. Maybe i will.
@@phillybrc can Iuse my metal ball cups in steering rod with metal crank, looks like its to tight to fit in there might have to sand??
I get stalk bell crank wobble does this stop it????
@@43rocket it helps. A little slop helps parts from breaking!
when my car is on even with stiff servo for sterring, I get bell crank movement side to side how do I stop this, I shims th crank but you still have bearing movement???
I think it s hard to get rid of all the slop. It could possibly be in your C-hubs also.
@@phillybrc ya the c hubs around tires sure move!!! will a metal bellcrank help at all??
@@phillybrc would metal c hubs and a arms help in wobble I think it would??
@@43rocket Not really. I suggest staying plastic arms. The metal arms just transfers that energy elsewhere and breaks other parts.
@@phillybrc the real problem with wobbles is shifting the c hubs, why did arrma make this huge wobble in the steering???
For anyone wondering, this piece does not fit 4s cars. The double sheared bits hit the chassis, unfortunately
It fits my K4sV2 just fine...
Maybe the 2.5 chassis is different?
@@VDVC-RC yep, the additional bracing around the hinge pin area means this cannot be used, v1 and v2 Should work fine

@magnusstone oh good for you. I set my steering endoints in my servo replacement video. Thanks for watchin!
