If you drive your car around on low with stock everything on tile and take corners real nice and easy, then you're probably better off not getting GPM parts. But I'm sure you don't want to do that,...

I know that I was able to steer with it before I poked it, but I don't know if the forward/back worked since I was replacing a fet. But I rewired the steering right now and that doesn't even work now...

I tried the bamboo skewer shaft and I got the length and notch sizes pretty good, but it turns out that notches round off because the bamboo is porous :/
