I am having some problems with my steering on a Baja 5b. Every time the wheels turn the steering bell crank slips out of the hole in the frame. The upper chassis plate is fully secured so I am not sure why there would be any extra space at all for it come out. Does anyone have any ideas on how to fix this?

Your chasiss could be bent , or maybe the holder is loose/damaged
Think you need to take it apart an investigate
Hell from that picture it even looks like the chassis is bent
 
I hope one of these photos help. I know it is tough to see. I am not sure what angle the front of the chassis is supposed to be bent, but it is possible that it was bent up at some point. Thanks in advance
Do you think it is something I can just bend back or should I just replace it?
 
as above, its bent, you may get away with straightening the main kick up on the chassis, but the top plate needs to go in the bin,
try and straighten the main chassis and see what happens mate, if it snaps then replace, but add an i-rc chassis brace to main chassis whatever you do to help prevent it happening again,
