FT9 rear hub plate summary

This Factory Pro aftermarket rear steering hub plate is made for the Schumacher FT9 1/10 on-road chassis and supplied as a single pair (1pair). Machined graphite is used to lower unsprung mass while keeping steering stiffness, making it a practical choice for racers and hobbyists who fine-tune steering geometry for differing track surfaces.

The component bolts into the FT9 rear steering assembly and replaces the standard hub plate without changing the basic linkage layout. Fitting normally involves removing the rear uprights, trimming minimal material around the hub area if required, aligning ball studs and bearings, and confirming steering link parallelism. This description refers strictly to RC-scale components and does not imply any real vehicle use.

As a setup part, the graphite plate alters steering response by providing a firmer mounting surface versus some stock composites. Use it when experimenting with toe, ackermann, or roll-center adjustments to evaluate handling changes; compatibility is limited to Schumacher FT9 specified mounting points and hardware.

The package contains one pair (1pair) of rear steering hub plates for the Schumacher FT9. Mounting screws or specific fasteners may not be included, so check your kit hardware before fitting.
Yes, the stiffer graphite mounting surface can sharpen steering response, but actual feel depends on your full setup including link lengths, ackermann, and tyre choice.
Keep mounting faces clean and inspect for edge chipping after impacts. Graphite does not rust, but check fasteners regularly for tightness to retain consistent steering geometry.
