I use mine to get me to work most of the time... though that'll change starting today.
Then I'll use it to plow the driveway. LOL

Do you guys think it would be worth while putting a steer axle in the rear. It is already a handfull but i am planning on makeing my front steer quicker so that might free up some time to steer the rear. If tim cameron can steer both at once than I think I should at least try.

It would probably be hard use to until you gear the rig down some.
The on/off throttle and high stall converter doesn't seem like it would allow any time to use it. your hands seem full just keeping the thing on the ground.
Might help you line up for stuff, but using it in throttle assaults....can't see it being controllable.
It would certainly help with issues of tight trees/wide rig, and be fun to build.
Its fun to watch Andy use his, he goes slow and its controlled and he works at something until he find a line. Its awesome for that type of playing around. When Rue ran it, I noticed it didn't get used much under throttle, just for lining up or purposefully crawling slow and having a tight line.
Your rig will be a tornado. ;D
You've got lower gears for that t-case eh? It would work better the slower you could get it to go. I dunno, i never drove a monster truck. just my opinion.

Creepy alot of rear steer rigs dont steer under full throttle because of breakage. I am not worried about breakage. It would make getting around simple for a larger rig. If I put a self centering control valve than that takes does the hardest part on its own. I think it would be a very hard rig to keep straight. If it ends up on its lid a bit more I will be happy as long as it goes more places. As for lower gears in the case, I do have some but I was thinking about going the other way. It runs out of gears before power. I was going to go from 3.0 to ones to 2.5 or 2.0 to ones. Remember I dont crawl. If I did crawl than lower gears would be good.

Too bad that fell through. Hopefully two steering 60's can hold up to the 46's and 383...but I guess that's a whole different thread for another day.
