Precision aluminium tie rod set for T-Maxx 3.3

This aftermarket tie rod set is designed specifically for the TRAXXAS T-Maxx 3.3 chassis and carries model number TMX3160. The kit replaces the original front and rear linkage rods referenced as part #4909 and is supplied as a four-piece set to service both steering and suspension link positions.

Built as direct-fit replacements, the aluminium rods retain the OEM mounting geometry while offering increased stiffness compared with stock plastic links. Intended fitment is the T-Maxx 3.3 platform; confirm the part number and mounting interfaces prior to installation to ensure correct ball cup and thread engagement.

Recommended workshop procedure: change one rod at a time to preserve pre-existing geometry, measure and copy the original lengths to retain toe settings, and avoid excessive tightening on joints to prevent thread wear. For tuning, apply small incremental length changes to refine steering responsiveness and front/rear balance.

Specifications

The TMX3160 tie rod set provides a dependable aluminium option for T-Maxx 3.3 linkage upgrades, focusing on consistent geometry and improved linkage stiffness.

What checks should be done before fitting?

Confirm the vehicle uses the same ball cup and thread arrangement as part #4909, inspect existing hardware for wear, and note current tie rod lengths to preserve geometry during replacement.

How should torque be applied to avoid damage?

Use moderate torque to secure ball ends, avoid overtightening plastic or plated nuts on threads, and recheck after a short run as fasteners can settle.

Are length adjustments reversible?

Yes, tie rod length changes are reversible; make small increments, test, and record settings so you can return to prior geometry if needed.
