Ran the truck the past couple of days, probably 45 minutes each time. My son managed to break nothing except lose a screw for the front bumper which is a record for him. Pinion also didn't slip finally.

We noticed today though that the truck is not turning well. If I pick up the front wheels, its turning lock to lock so the servo seems to be okay. Could the servo just be losing power or do I need to check the servo saver?
 
Looks like my servo saver needs to be tightened, we also lost a screw out the bottom of one of the steering posts. m4 X12mm. Does anyone know if you can buy these at home depot or something? 3 dollars plus 3 bucks shipping is a bit much.
 
I’m sure you can. I have found a lot of the screws I needed at D&B so I don’t why not.

Check your local Lowes/Ace Hardware/True Value/Menards/Home Depot ect and look in their screws and bolts section. My local Menards has a lot of different metric hex screws.
 
Got the screws at Lowes. tightened up the servo saver till the wheels would move when I turned the controller with the truck in driving position. Hope I didn't tighten it too much.
 
Lowes specialty hardware drawer has just what you need. First pic was a temp fix till I got the right 1 then the second 1 is the 1 from lowes.
