Comments.Text: What is exactly the problem you're facing? How is the steering unstable or inaccurate? Can you share what you have tried so far (a photo would be the best or a digital build), and how does that not fulfill the expectations?

  (Asked by: username_0 on 2024-07-10)
  
  I am having trouble with getting a differential and a rack-and-pinion steering mechanism to work together without being unstable or inaccurate. I don’t have the special wheels (rims/tires), ball joints, or caster pieces to make any other design, so avoiding those would be ideal.
