Exotek have released this new steering rack conversion set for the TLR22, 22SCT and 22T. Featuring an all new CNC machined design with bearings and steel bushings for reliable steering and precise track performance, this design was carried over from Exotek’s popular parts for other buggy models and is surprisingly compact and efficient on the 22. The conversion bolts into the stock locations of the 22 chassis with ease and uses all of the stock hardware. The geometry is spot on with the steering rack working in perfect tandem with the front links and suspension of the 22, while the reverse mounted steering cranks matches the movement of the steering knuckles resulting in aligned angles of the steering turnbuckles when turning left and right. Bump steer can be easily changed by spacing the rack up or down and the steering link angle can be changed by adding spacers to the inboard ball ends. The inboard ball ends laydown position also helps eliminate the dreaded ball cup pop off’s of the 22SCT. For proper clearance of the steering rack new heavy duty servo mounts are included so that the servo is positioned 6mm further back.
