This steering rack is an RC-scale replacement part manufactured for the LOSI 5IVE-TE 3.0 1/5 electric 4WD desert truck platform. The unit is machined from titanium using a wire-cut process and carries the original part reference LOS-3720. Surface machining marks or occasional minor burrs can be present as a result of the wire-cut finish, and light scratches may appear during storage or transit; these do not affect structural strength or fit.
Functionally the rack replaces the stock steering tie and serves as a direct steering component on the 5IVE-TE 3.0 chassis listed below. When fitting, verify alignment with the servo horn and steering linkage, check clearances across the suspension travel, and confirm that fasteners seat cleanly without interference. Small burrs can be removed carefully with a fine file before installation to ensure smooth linkage movement.
As a tuning item, the titanium rack offers a stable mounting point for steering linkages and can contribute to consistent steering response under load; tuning changes should be validated on the bench first, then tested in controlled runs to confirm handling behavior.
Confirm fitment against the listed LOSI chassis and inspect the part for any shipping marks prior to installation; use appropriate threadlocker where specified for your chassis hardware.
