do you mean 2 steer servos like on a revo? don't think ive ever seen it done in a thread here before. i imagine you could get the flm plate and use the parts from 2 bell cranks if your looking to get "wow" factor, but youd be way better off just buying a better steer servo.

yeah that what was i was thinking of doing putting 2 steering servos. i thought it was possible but i would have to re locate the throttle servo. I'm thinking of just buying a better servo because i want my wheels to turn while the truck tires are on the ground.
this is a easy thing to accomplish. what Tx/Rx do you have and how much money you wanna spend?
well, i say it really comes down to your Transmitter/Receiver. If you have the stock AM stuff, then id recommend a analog servo.
if you have a digital transmitter (Tx) and Receiver (Rx) or plan on getting one sometime soon, id recommend a Digital Servo. Which do you have?

ps. I'm running this digital servo in my flux right now (i have futaba 3pm 2.4Ghz) and it rocks http://cgi.ebay.com/TTR-ACE-DS-1015-Digital-Servo-High-Torque-High-Speed-/270639491833?pt=Radio_Control_Parts_Accessories&hash=item3f035eeaf9#ht_1161wt_905

+++1 on this servo! I have them in two of my trucks, and they kick a$$ - strong as snot, and fast as hell
This servo is in my TCS kit, and even with the extra weight of the stretched TVP's, roll cage, huge battery, and Mulcher tires, it still flips the wheels back and forth...

Oh yes. And if you have ever seem mulchers, they are brutal The issue I have more often than not is that the servo saver spring will flex - the servo is strong enough to push harder than the servo saver can hold
I dunno about the price, but here is a pic -

I just want to toss out there the Futaba 3305 is stock SF2 with alloy gears. Have you tried to tighten the servo saver on the bell crank. Is this a X?
I also like the DS 1015 I use it one my flux and D8 will be on my 8T 2.0 some day .. Allot of people change the duel set up on the revos to single as well.
