I have heard that puting ball bearing in your steering linkage instead of the stock plastic bushing (below the radio tray) will greatly increase steering anybody have any input on this???
HPI sells them on their site???

it wont icrease steering parce, but it will make it easier for the servo to turn the wheels which in turn makes the wheels turn faster. so technically you are not getting more steering but more responsive steering

i didnt think it would increase steering sorry i should have worded it better my bad i guess it would take a little load off the servo and be a little easier on my batteries!!!

well i'd put ballbearings in there not specially for the more responsive steering but i think that every turning axle need to turn in ballbearings... the parts last longer ...but i didn't really noticed any difference tho
