Made for the Axial AX10 Deadbolt, this orange-finished aluminium steering rod serves as a metal alternative to the original plastic tie rod. It provides a rigid connection between the servo output and the steering knuckles for scale setups.
The part is declared compatible only with the Axial AX10 Deadbolt platform; no broader fitment claims are made. It is supplied as a direct replacement link for hobbyists tuning and maintaining AX10 Deadbolt crawlers.
Fitment advice: ensure threads engage fully and rod ends sit squarely in the knuckle sockets. Fine-tune tie-rod lengths so the wheels track straight and avoid overtightening fasteners into plastic parts to protect threads.
Tuning benefit: a stiff aluminium rod reduces flex compared with stock plastic links, helping deliver steadier steering geometry under load and more predictable servo adjustments during trials.
Care: periodically check ball sockets for play and inspect the orange anodizing for chips after impacts; replace worn rod ends to retain steering precision.
