Technical overview of the steering tie rod

This steering tie rod is a direct replacement designed for the Axial Racing Yeti XL platform and is catalogued as AX31033, supplied as a 1 pr set. The primary load member is spring-steel while plastic ball ends provide articulation points that avoid metal-on-metal wear.

The component provides the steering linkage between servo output and steering knuckle, enabling fine adjustments to toe and centring. Spring-steel construction is selected for elastic recovery characteristics under impact loading, helping the link retain functional alignment after minor deformations.

Installation is a basic swap of the existing tie rod pair. After fitting, confirm ball-end seating and full joint articulation, then verify steering geometry. Routine inspection of the plastic ball ends is recommended; replace the tie rod set when play develops to maintain precise steering response.

What is the delivered quantity and format?

Supplied as a single pair of tie rods intended to replace both steering links on the Yeti XL.

Which material grades are used?

The main shaft is spring-steel for elastic recovery and impact resilience; the articulating ends are plastic ball joints to reduce friction and wear.

Service and inspection guidance?

Inspect joints after heavy use or impacts, clean contaminants from the seating areas, and replace the set if any significant play or cracking appears in the ball ends.
