Replacement steering links for ARRMA 1/5 models

This front steering tie rod set is an aftermarket replacement designed for use on ARRMA Kraton and Outcast 1/5 4X4 vehicles. Forged from 4140 carbon steel, the links feature an 8 mm section thickness and an adjustable center-to-center span of 163-168 mm to support alignment and toe corrections required for aggressive running and setup tuning. Components come pre-assembled where applicable, and using a medium-strength thread adhesive on screws helps prevent them backing out under heavy vibration.

The parts directly substitute the listed factory items and conform to the steering geometry of the specified ARRMA models, providing a straight swap for hobbyists aiming to upgrade durability or restore steering precision. Turnbuckle-style ends let you alter rod length incrementally so toe settings can be tuned without swapping to fixed rods.

Items in the package are ready for installation to speed up field servicing, and the set includes plastic rod ends to maintain stock interface compatibility.

Ideal when you need a robust, adjustable steering link that retains stock fitment while improving toughness for hard-use 1/5 driving.

Installation is straightforward: remove the stock rods and install the supplied links using the existing mounting points. Pre-assembled pieces reduce fitment time.
Basic hand tools are sufficient. A thread-lock applicator is recommended and a small torque driver helps ensure correct fastener clamp.
After initial runs check fastener tightness, reapply medium-strength thread adhesive if needed, and inspect rod ends for wear after heavy sessions.
Yes, adjust each turnbuckle to change the center-to-center length within the 163-168 mm range to alter toe and steering feel, then lock the adjustment and re-check on track.
