I am pretty sold on the 330 HST. But i have a design question that came to mind. I see most manufactureres put the steering linkage behind the axle, I assume to keep it protected. I see TYM has the linkage out in front, and is rack and pinioned which looks like the seals are overly exposed, and the rods could get bent.

Anyone care to comment?
