DF01 steering replacement kit

This steering assembly is produced for the TAMIYA DF01 chassis and supplied as a single replacement set that includes bearings. It is an RC-scale replacement item intended to restore or adjust steering linkage geometry on DF01 cars and is not for use in real vehicles.

The design replaces tired steering parts and integrates bearings at key pivots to cut excessive movement and give steadier response under steering load. After fitting, check servo horn alignment and use small trim changes to keep the desired toe and Ackermann setup.

Installation follows standard DF01 procedures: remove the original steering block, move across any reusable links, mount the assembly to the steering knuckles, and fasten with factory hardware while confirming centring and bind-free travel.

For hobbyists running DF01 projects, the DF1048 steering set is a simple swap to address worn pivots and deliver improved steering consistency while keeping tuning options intact.

It fits DF01-style steering mounts; if your conversion keeps the stock mounting points the assembly should fit without extra machining.
The set is supplied including the bearings for the pivot positions, though final seating and securing during install is recommended.
Verify steering centring, ensure there is no binding through travel, and confirm the servo horn is aligned to avoid unwanted toe changes.
By reducing pivot play with bearings, the assembly tends to produce a firmer, more predictable steering response, particularly under higher steering loads.
