Insert (2) 6x10mm flanged and (2) 5x8x2.5mm bearings 
into each steering bellcrank as shown 

 

Attach the bellcrank ackerman plate to the steering 
bellcranks using (2) bellcrank insert nuts and (2) 4-
40x5/16” FHS and countersunk washers 

 

Attach bellcrank assembly to standoff using (2) 4-
40x5/16” FHS and countersunk washers 

 

Attach carbon fiber steering arms to steering blocks 
using (2) 4-40 BHS. Note; steering arms are marked R 
and L. 
 

 

Insert the inner 5x10x4mm bearings into steering 
blocks, slide the axles in place and press in the outer 
bearings with aluminum crush spacer between. 

 

Push the 1/16x3/8” roll pins in place, slide the hex 
adaptors in place and affix with the 1-72 screw. 

 

Press a #5 insert into the caster blocks and ream the 
pin holes as needed. 

 

Attach the castor blocks to the front arms using 1.285” 
hinge pins and e-clips. 

 

Make (2) camber links from 2.250” turnbuckles and rod 
ends. Starting length = 3.150”. A small amount of 
grease in the holes of the rod ends eases assembly.  
Note there is one Right hand thread and one Left hand 
thread on each turnbuckle.  We recommend marking 
the right hand rod end upon assembly with heat shrink 
tubing, paint or other mark to speed adjustment at the 
track. 

 

Attach the camber links to caster blocks with 4-40x 5/8” 
BHS, a lock nut between the rod end and the caster 
block. Then pass the screw through the inner hole on 
the caster block and secure with a second lock nut.  The 
inner end of the camber links get secured via a  4-40 x 
1/2” BHS with a black cone washer between the link 
and the outer hole in the bulkhead 

 

Using the same method make (2) Tie rods from addi-
tional 1.75” turnbuckles and rod ends.  Starting length 
=2.95”.  Attach with 4-40 x 1/2” BHS  and lock nuts on 
both ends.  The tie rod mounts to center hole in acker-
man plate as shown.
