I got the front axle mounted, I'm not sure I'm going to use this driveshaft it works but looks kind of klunky
The steering rod is the wrong way around here, it should be on the backside. Now the outer wheel (bottom one on this picture) makes the sharpest turn and that should be the inner one.

WPL does it wrong on all their chassis, so does Tamiya by the way.

Look for the Ackermann principle, it explains how a steering axle makes the right angle for proper steering. Believe me, it will make a whole lot of difference once mounted properly.
