This RC-scale aluminum steering linkage is made for the Axial AX10 Deadbolt chassis and comes in an orange finish. It replaces the stock plastic tie rod to provide a direct metal connection between the steering knuckles and the servo horn, intended for scale steering maintenance and fine tuning.
Compatibility is limited to the Axial AX10 Deadbolt platform as indicated; no compatibility with other models is claimed. The component is intended as a drop-in steering linkage replacement for hobbyists maintaining or refining AX10 Deadbolt rigs.
Installation notes: check thread engagement and end-link seating when fitting this aluminum linkage to existing steering components. Confirm ball ends or rod ends seat fully into the steering knuckles and set tie-rod lengths for neutral toe and steering centring. Avoid over-tightening fasteners to prevent stripping threads in plastic knuckles.
Tuning role: fit this linkage to stabilise steering geometry during trials or scale crawling, and to preserve consistent servo feedback when adjusting servo endpoints or steering throw. The rigid aluminum construction reduces flex compared with stock plastic links, improving repeatable steering response during setup changes.
Maintenance: inspect ball joints and rod ends for wear and check the orange finish for surface damage after impacts. Replace the link if ball sockets show excessive play to maintain steering accuracy.
