As for the all thread you may try McMaster as I believe they have metric all thread in those sizes.

Looking good and can't wait to see more.

Thanks Tyler. I'm going to need a servo with a little bit longer shaft on it as well. I assume they have those?

Thanks for posting and hope to see more

Mario.

I did it mostly for looks Mario, but I figured if I took the time to make a working steering box then I could also make the release handle move as well.
