I didn't get CVD's from GPM...

May not have gotten them from GPM but you had the GPM branded Universals for RCMart....at least that is what I got from your post.

UPDATE!!! UPDATE!!!


Got the GPM Racing TA02 Universals and holy crap... they are a direct replacement to the stock parts, no bearings needed or different knuckles required. They fit like they were made for the CC-01 setup.

Right here.

I have these. They are not a direct drop in replacement. They are steel. They are longer than the stock setup. You will have to get these knuckles for them to work.

ahh so its the TA01 set. That will increase the offset and make wheels wider no?

Correct. I have the GPM aluminum(blue) universals. Broke those after 30 minutes. The Yeah Racing CVD's are still hold strong and allow for more steering thanks to the TA02 knuckles and the CVD design.

Make it take up the whole screen, take a screen shot, save it as an image, and post it up.

I know there is a way to convert it to an image using Adobe or something like that, but I don't know how to do it.

Here are the front knuckles. I am working with GPM to get some pics of the steering assembly. They haven't been produced yet. I did advise them that we are wanting bearings on the steering shaft and sent them some pics for an example.

 

[toyofast]

I'm really hoping that the steering that they produce isn't just alloy bits that really don't solve the poor design thanks to Tamiya.

I also have sent them an email and images of my busted GPM alloy universals, letting them know that since they were designed for an on-road car, they won't stand up to off-road use.

 

[tpliquid]

hopefully they do make some beefed up steering assembly. I wouldnt have to spend my $ on machine shop to make me one that I drew up last week.
