Kyosho Mini Inferno Alloy Tie Rod Assembly 9pc MIF160 for Performance Steering by GPM  [MIF160]

Detailed tie rod assembly for Mini Inferno

The MIF160 tie rod set is a precision alloy steering linkage supplied as a 9-piece kit with screws, engineered for Kyosho Mini Inferno models. This technical overview covers fitment points, installation technique, and the functional impact on steering geometry when replacing stock components.

Compatibility and engineering role: the assembly replaces OEM tie rods and related fasteners, enabling controlled changes to steering geometry and link stiffness. Use the kit to eliminate play from worn plastic linkages or to achieve a more rigid steering train for precise inputs.

Installation guidance: mount the links at the vehicle's factory steering connection points using the included screws. Ensure correct thread engagement, align ball studs before final torque, and confirm full steering sweep is free of binding. Standard hex drivers matching the screw heads are acceptable; where vibration is severe, apply a medium-strength threadlocker to critical fasteners.

Tuning and performance notes: alloy links increase torsional stiffness of the steering linkage and can affect centring and toe sensitivity. After installation, perform measured steering calibration: centre servo output, set static toe, and validate dynamic behaviour on a short test run to fine tune handling.
