I know a couple of the UK team had a different steering link that gave better throw, no idea if this was something similar?

I’ll post a picture when I get home of the steering mod on my T4. Alec Springer (Smartalec oople user name) gave me a modified steering plate to replace the ackerman bar. You will need new shorter turn buckles to make it work.

Trying to get a bit more steering on my t4, is this mod basically a short link?

I know its not related to this link, but have you also flipped the rear wishbones and mounted the shocks on the front of the tower? Haven't seen this mod, but heard of it
