This aluminium hi-torque servo saver is engineered for the TAMIYA GF01 steering assembly and uses a 23T spline coupled with a steel tie rod to provide measured compliance between the servo output and the steering drag link. It is intended to reduce impact loads on the servo while allowing precise tuning of steering feel via linkage adjustments.
Installation notes: confirm the servo output spline is 23T before assembly, ensure tie rod ends are aligned to eliminate binding, and set the saver preload so it engages under impact without introducing excess free play. Verify linkage geometry and full suspension travel after fitting to confirm there is no interference with steering stops.
Workshop guidance: perform small incremental tie rod adjustments to centre the steering and alter responsiveness, monitor rod end lateral play during setup, and re-torque mounting hardware after initial shakedown runs. Use this component within GF01 steering systems for RC applications only.
