HPI Baja Steering 5x10 Bearings BJ048BEARING by GPM  [BJ048BEARING]

Precision steering bearings for HPI Baja

This aftermarket pack contains four 5x10 bearings intended for the steering hubs and knuckles of HPI Baja scale vehicles. The components are supplied as direct replacements for bearings that have developed play or rough rotation, restoring smoother steering articulation and repeatable handling.

Service procedure: remove steering hubs or knuckles, extract the worn bearings, and install the new 5x10 bearings using a press or matched driver to ensure correct seating. After reassembly check for unobstructed rotation and minimal side play at the hub and kingpin interfaces, and remove any contaminants from mating surfaces prior to final fitment.

Maintenance and setup: installing fresh bearings lowers friction and mechanical slack within the steering train, which helps maintain consistent steering response across practice and competition runs. Regular inspection and timely replacement is a recommended maintenance item to preserve handling precision.
