Step 8. Insert a 3/32" x 3/16" plastic bushing (13) into the two large,
angled holes in the bottom of the front kickplate (14). Insert the other
two bushings (13) into the two outer holes in the steering brace (15).
Step 9. Insert a 3/32" x .930" hinge pin (16) through the hole in the
steering idler arm (8) and center the pin (16) in the idler arm (8). Place
the servo saver assembly and the steering idler arm (8) into the bush-
ings (13) in the kickplate (14) so that the
installed drag link is to the front as shown in Figure 4.
Step 10. Place the steering brace (15) on top of the servo saver assem-
bly and steering idler arm (8) ensuring that the bushings (13) slide
over the pins.
Step 11. Secure the steering brace (15) to the kickplate (14) using two
4-40 x 3/8" cap-head screws (17).
Tip: There is a short thread-cutting screw included in the wrench
bag. This screw can be used to tap threads in the holes in the
kickplate. Pre-tapping these holes makes it easier to install the
screws during assembly.

Step 12. Install a threaded insert (18) into the top of each of the two
forward holes in the kickplate (14). The inserts should be installed
with the hex-side up as shown in Figure 5. Press the threaded inserts
(18) all the way into the holes in the kickplate (14), lining up the hex on
the inserts (18) with the hex in the holes.

Step 13. Attach the front kickplate (14) to the bottom of the main
chassis (19). Align the four holes in the kickplate (14) with the four
holes in the main chassis (19). Secure the kickplate (14) to the chassis
(19) by threading two 4-40 x 5/8" flat-head screws (21) through the
forward holes and into the threaded inserts (18). Thread two more 4-
40 x 3/8"(20) flat-head screws through the two rear holes of the chas-
sis (19) and into the kickplate (14).
IMPORTANT NOTE: Ensure that the hex of the threaded
insert remains seated in the hex area on top of the
kickplate.
Tip: There is a short thread-cutting screw included in the wrench
bag. This screw can be used to tap threads in the holes in the
kickplate. Pre-tapping these holes makes it easier to install the
screws during assembly.
