Gen4 Economy Steering Fix

[mecham]

Some of you will probably just say "go buy the oft steering blocks" but I for one don't think just because the stock part isn't perfect doesn't mean I need to spend more money replacing a part. Don't have a picture at the moment because my hood is back on but the top steering block that has the front hole in it that has nothing going through it, I put two zip ties through that hole and tighten that gap that you can see between the two plastic halves and it took all the play out of my steering. I originally did this for a "quick fix" to the slop in the steering but those two zip ties have been holding strong for 708 miles of me hammering this sled, and my steering is still just as tight as when I first put in the zip ties. Hopefully this will help someone who also doesn't like the slop in the stock steering!

I was probably one of the last to get my sled. My steering post is rock solid and don't have any issues. My temp prob I checked each time and its tight with no backing out. Maybe the later builds they addressed those issues? I was pissed about not getting sled til end of dec, but maybe it was worth it
