3D model description

The front leaf springs of WPL vehicles are notorious to crack and bend, especially if used off road with a trailer attached. So I designed this spring and this spacer.

They also allow to to move the connecting rod to the rear side of the axle. The result is a correct Ackermann steering geometry, where the inner wheel is moving more than the outer.

The servo can be rotated easily. You just have to cut the front cross member according to the pictures. The front axle and the rod are the same as used in the C34

It appears to work fine so far. PETG is the ideal material in my opinion. It's flexible and stiff at the same time.
