    Check the bearings in the bellcrank and make sure that its not full of dirt. also check your steering servo

    Did not know there was bearing in there! that one part I did not dismantle so far, just looked the exploded view and see there is 4 bearing....I know what I will do tonight, that must be the problem, car is 5 months old and never open that part

    Thanks for the advice I let you know if it was the problem...

    I went to the STRC setup! It works WAY better than the standard steering.
