This aftermarket steering kit is built for the TRAXXAS XO-1 platform and focuses on steering precision and long-term service life. The servo horn is machined from 6061 T6 aluminum to resist shear under load, while the adjustable tie rod and the included fasteners are stainless steel to reduce wear at the pivot points. An integrated spring on the servo horn helps dampen impact pulses to protect the steering gear during heavy use.
The kit replaces the stock servo arm and steering link and provides two tie-rod mounting positions to allow tuning of steering throw and centring bias without altering servo endpoints. The tie rod employs a counter-clockwise thread for straightforward turnbuckle adjustments and routine tuning.
Installation notes: centre the servo and fit the horn to the servo spline, select the tie-rod hole that matches the steering ratio you need, and verify transmitter travel limits to prevent over-travel. For track or road tuning, swap the tie-rod mounting to trade responsiveness for directional stability.
