Precision alloy steering assembly for XV-01

This precision alloy steering assembly is produced for the Tamiya XV-01 platform and supplied as a 3pcs kit. It replaces the original plastic steering pieces with a single machined alloy component that includes installed 5x8 bearings to improve pivot consistency and servo linkage predictability.

Installation suits modders familiar with XV-01 servicing: remove the plastic steering parts and refit the stock linkages and fasteners where compatible. Verify that bearings are fully seated and that the steering linkage geometry is free from binding, since small misalignments at the servo horn can lead to inconsistent steering on different surfaces.

Offered as an aftermarket upgrade, this unit reduces play in the steering system and helps preserve steering responsiveness during tuning and track runs. The set includes 3pcs, each with a 5x8 bearing pre-fitted for straightforward replacement when original XV-01 steering dimensions are kept.

Most body styles do not need trimming, but always check space around the steering area and confirm horn clearance before final fitting.
Yes, the bearings can be inspected and replaced if needed; they are installed for convenience but can be removed with basic tools if service is required.
Re-using compatible stock linkages and fasteners is common and reduces cost; confirm fit and tightness after assembly to prevent play.
