The MIF160 tie rod kit is an alloy, assembled steering linkage pack designed for Kyosho Mini Inferno RC cars, delivered as a nine-piece set including screws. The content covers what the kit replaces, practical installation points, and how these parts influence steering when used to replace or tune the factory linkage.
Compatibility and function: this set takes the place of worn or damaged stock tie rods and accompanying hardware, letting you adjust steering geometry and change linkage stiffness. Use the kit when plastic links are fatigued or when you need crisper steering inputs for improved control.
Installation notes: fit the links at the Mini Inferno's standard connection points using the supplied screws. Tighten carefully, confirm thread engagement before final torque, and check steering throw and toe following installation. Standard hex bits that match the screws are appropriate; apply threadlocker sparingly for high-vibration use.
Tuning advice: alloy tie rods alter steering stiffness and the feel at the wheel. When you swap from stock parts, re-centre the steering and tweak toe settings incrementally until the handling is balanced and predictable.
