Steering Bell Crank
 
Has anybody here used a steering bell crank on their truck? Looking for some different option on my truck to get the servos and the axle mounted where everything fits and works good.

Love to see some custom bell crank setups if you have some photos to share.

I made this setup for the Hayes I am working on. I think I might have to upgrade to a standard size servo but I'm not positive. It seems to have good travel and will look like the 1:1 once completed.

Thank You Reg, I hadn't even thought about a bell crank where the pin is horizontal, the ones I have been looking at have the pin vertical. Nice work!

I got this one. http://www.ebay.com/itm/201368934846...%3AMEBIDX%3AIT

It's smaller and can fit inside the frame. Perfect for my KH and MB Beam Hauler.

Pliers for the cleco clamps I use. You can see them in the picture as well. Great for sheet metal clamping

When I discovered Clecos from a cr buddy that was the end for other clamps and they are dirt cheap !
