Setup for front tuning brakes

[kevinl2375]

I am just after examples of what people have done to mount the brake rod to the servo. I have fried a couple of servos and am thinking of trying to set it up with a slider and spring assembly. Has anyone else either had this problem or made it better?

Are you planning on mounting front brakes along with the rear brakes on 1 servo or 2? Below are pictures of the front brakes installed on 3 of my previous cars. The 1st 2 have it on 1 servo and the 3rd one has the front brake on a separate servo. I hope this is of some help for you. Feel free to ask me any questions you may have.

I used a plane rod end for the servo end of the rod on mine.

I'm too cheap to buy the stock linkages so bug my biking buddies for chunks of their gear shift cables and use those instead of the hard wires. I prefer the look and less wear on tanks and stuff where they tend to rub

Thanks guys I appreciate the replies.

And thanks for the pics [AK]ZIP.

How you have your setup is the same as mine using 1 servo. I have been thinking about going the 2nd servo route due to wanting to get hydros later on. But for the moment was thinking that there has to be a better way.

A separate servo is best. This way you can reef on the setup without the worry of burning up your throttle servo.

Sorry about pic quality but this worked well.

That's not bad. How is the servo holding up with all the torque?

Works like a charm but I haven't fixed the diff cup yet so I only have 2 tanks thru with the new servo.
