HPI Savage 21 Titanium Tie Rod Set TSAV1160A by GPM  [TSAV1160A]

Technical overview of the TSAV1160A titanium tie rods

The TSAV1160A tie rod kit is an aftermarket replacement for the HPI Savage 21 steering linkage, provided as a 2 prs set. Constructed in titanium to minimise flex while keeping mass low, the set is intended to enhance steering consistency without altering stock geometry.

Installation follows standard Savage 21 procedures: remove the original tie rods at the ball ends, fit the TSAV1160A links, then calibrate toe and steering centring. Use routine RC tools and confirm thread engagement and ball joint security to avoid binding or loose play.

Functionally, the titanium links reduce deflection under load and assist in retaining toe alignment during aggressive use. For best results pair these rods with correctly serviced bearings and precise alignment to achieve predictable steering behaviour during tuning.

Engineered for reduced linkage flex and consistent steering feedback on Savage 21 platforms, the TSAV1160A is a durable upgrade option for precise handling setups.
