Sry for the re-post. But thanks for the advise. I am building an explorer currently.. the rules dont quite allow to the extent of your build. But all the pictures really help with ideas. Any advice on for the steering?

Any advice on for the steering? Bolts and bracing if your allowed and make the front diff solid, mine snapped at the pivot point so i welded it solid

Watched 2 of these run Friday and both were well built...all i can say is holy crap they can take a beating. The weak points I saw were all up front(steering, ball joints, etc)..one finished second(motor litterally blew up and shot flames 30 feet) and the other im not sure of, but they really impressed me.

Mine will run again in two weeks,all my steering and ball joints are bolted and braced and my front axle is also braced.
