High precision titanium rack for the 5IVE-TE 3.0

This steering rack is an RC-scale replacement part manufactured for the LOSI 5IVE-TE 3.0 1/5 electric 4WD desert truck platform. The component is produced from titanium with a wire-cut machining method and references the original part LOS-3720. Expect light surface machining traces or occasional tiny burrs from the cutting process; minor storage scuffs can appear but do not affect fit or strength.

The rack replaces the stock steering tie and mounts directly to the 5IVE-TE 3.0 chassis shown below. During installation confirm the servo horn alignment and verify that the steering linkage clears the suspension through full travel. If needed, remove small burrs with a fine file to ensure smooth pivoting.

Used as an upgrade, the titanium rack provides a rigid steering pivot that can steady steering feel during demanding runs; always confirm any tuning adjustments on the bench before high-speed testing to validate handling changes.

Verify fit against the listed LOSI chassis and check for transit marks before final fitment; apply threadlocker where your chassis manual indicates.

Titanium offers excellent strength-to-weight and resists deformation in typical RC desert running. Inspect after heavy impacts and replace if bends or cracks are detected.
Yes. Use a fine file or deburring tool and work gently to avoid changing critical dimensions. Light finishing will not harm the part when done carefully.
The firmer mounting point can make steering response feel more consistent under load. Test any setup changes progressively to dial in the desired feel.
Check the rack for burrs, fastener security, and surface damage after each intense running session or after impacts. Regular checks help prevent unexpected failures.
