Reinforced front mount and link set for Craniac

This aftermarket front mount holder and tie rod kit fits the TRAXXAS 1/10 Craniac platform and is supplied as a single upgrade pack. It swaps the original plastic mounting parts for a CNC-style aluminium holder and spring steel tie rods to give a more positive steering connection while keeping weight near the original specification for predictable handling.

Fitting requires removal of the stock front mount and steering arms, then installing the aluminium holder and connecting the spring steel tie rods. Use your stock hardware where it matches and basic hex tools to assemble, then check toe and steering travel before running the truck.

For tuning the aluminium component reduces front pivot movement on landings and the spring steel rods allow a controlled amount of flex to absorb hits without binding. The result is a clearer steering feel without making the front end feel brittle on rough tracks.

Specifications

  • Item: Front mount holder & tie rod set
  • Material: Aluminium holder, spring steel tie rods
  • Model Number: CRA049S
  • Compatibility: TRAXXAS 1/10 Craniac Monster Truck

Designed to improve steering consistency and front-end durability; confirm fitment and clearance during trial assembly.

Yes, it is intended as a direct replacement for the stock front mount components on the TRAXXAS Craniac, but check that any reused fasteners fit correctly.
Basic hex drivers and pliers are sufficient for the swap; a thread locker may be useful on critical fasteners after final setup.
Geometry should remain the same if installed correctly, though final toe and steering limits should be checked and adjusted as needed.
Maintenance is minimal; inspect tie rods and mount after running and replace any bent components to maintain precise steering.
