I bought some gps (gls) something like that ? bought from china (off ebay) they recommended on LST site, has replacable bearing in the steering link. What i need is a steering post, a stronger link metal bent thing that someone names adic or suicide or some thign use to make but doesnt seen to produce anymore

The stronger link that me & linc are talking about it what you need . it's made by a guy on lst forums called firemedic . It's called the BAC link or badd ass creations link . The bell crank's i had on mine did not have bearings or bushings . thats what was recomended .

I have a pm into the guy that makes or made them on lst forums . when i find something out i'll pass on the info . If you get his link you will have to drill out your bell crank's for the link to fit . It is thicker than stock .

Very useful info guys, many thanks to you rchippie, and have fun with the builds jj. Do you still have both trucks?

Hey Mike, do you have a bl lst, or is it still nitro? How many vehicles do you have?

Linc, Im looking to order some 3/16 kydex. You think that would be thick enough to keep my batts rock solid in place?

jayjay283 · 12.29.2008, 02:37 AM

Yes link I still have them both, kind of said I'd sell you that muggy but im a greedy girl and just hid it in my garage cabnets from the wife. 4 months later no way she will remember (yeah right) ..Ill just tell her I have 2 lsts, like she know what a transmission is.

Should be fine, the stuff I am using is thinner, and it works great...

Ha, I have a muggy already, found a steal on one a while back... I may sell it on, not sure if I want one right now.

Ok sweet. I found a 15in x 15in 3/16in sheet on fleabay for $15 shipped. Looks to me like a great deal.

You should try the Kydex, it's much lighter than stainless steel and very durable. I got one of those Kydex trays with the CRT .5 I bought off Linc and it's good stuff. I've got a Kydex sheath for a sword and it has taken a beating and is still in good shape, I need to get my sister a car made out of this stuff

This will be great stuff for him. Thanks!

Gotta say that your build looks really nice, and is also really well documented. If I didn't have a emaxx already, I'd be making a clone of what you got. Great work!

Many thanks, kydex is great!

HAHA, if only you could do that! Kydex is a great product for making battery trays and other stuff...
