The GT048 steering assembly is a 14-piece aftermarket kit made for TRAXXAS GT4 TEC 2.0 platforms, built to reduce steering lash and improve engagement at the linkage joints. The kit pairs machined Aluminum 6061 T6 components with Delrin collars to keep tolerances tight while minimising friction between moving parts.
The upgrade targets the steering system: shims and collars address end float and lateral slop, and the aluminum replacements take the place of softer plastic pieces to give firmer, more predictable steering input. This approach helps drivers achieve a crisper mechanical feel without changing servo settings or electronics.
Fitting is straightforward for anyone familiar with basic TRAXXAS linkage work, using standard hex drivers and attention to collar orientation. Use moderate torque to avoid compressing the Delrin collars; recheck steering freeplay after installation and make small adjustments to prevent binding.
For TRAXXAS GT4 owners looking for a hardware-first way to reduce steering play, the GT048 set offers a compact mechanical upgrade that works alongside electronic tuning without requiring servo or ESC changes.
