Precision aluminium steering posts for Axial Yeti applications

This aftermarket pair of steering assembly posts is an RC-scale replacement engineered by GPM for Axial Racing Yeti chassis operators. The aluminium posts are supplied with bearings to support the steering linkage pivot interfaces and replace worn or plastic factory posts to maintain accurate steering geometry and reduce slop at the pivot.

Installation follows standard procedures on common Yeti layouts: remove the original posts, press the supplied bearings into the post bores if they are not preinstalled, then install the posts into the steering block ensuring concentric seating and unhindered rotation. Retain compatible chassis hardware where appropriate and verify alignment before final torqueing.

From a tuning perspective, aluminium posts fitted with bearings deliver improved pivot repeatability and lower play, which aids precise toe and ackermann adjustments. This component is intended for scale RC models only and is not suitable for full-size vehicles.

What checks should I perform before fitting YT048A?

Confirm steering block bore diameter and linkage clearances match the post and bearing dimensions supplied, and inspect fasteners for wear prior to installation.

How should bearings be seated for optimal alignment?

Press bearings squarely into the post bores using a suitable arbor or socket to avoid misalignment; ensure the bearing faces sit flush to prevent preload or binding.

Any recommended maintenance for these posts?

Periodic inspection, cleaning of pivot interfaces, and light lubrication of bearings will preserve smooth operation and consistent steering geometry over time.
