What this front steering tie rod offers

This front steering tie rod assembly is supplied for ARRMA 1/5 Kraton and Outcast models under model MAKX162S/V2. Built from 4140 carbon steel with an 8mm main link thickness, the part provides adjustable center-to-center lengths from 163mm to 168mm. Hardware ships pre-assembled; apply a medium-strength thread locker to fasteners to limit loosening during aggressive driving.

The part serves as a replacement for the factory steering linkage set identified by the original part numbers below. Its adjustable rod ends permit fine toe adjustments and steering geometry tuning without modifying the original knuckles or hubs, and the steel construction is intended for standard RC impacts and wear patterns.

Choose this steel adjustable tie rod when you want a tougher option over stock linkage; confirm fit with the compatible models and secure fasteners after final alignment checks.

How durable is 4140 carbon steel under bashing?

4140 carbon steel offers strong impact resistance compared with typical plastic links; it handles routine bashing well but will still deform under extreme loads rather than remain elastic.

How should I protect threads and rod ends?

Keep threads clean and apply a light coating of corrosion inhibitor if you operate in wet conditions; always use medium-strength thread locker when finalising adjustments.

Are the plastic rod ends replaceable?

Yes, the kit includes plastic rod ends that can be replaced if worn; sourcing matching rod ends of the same size will restore fit and movement.

Will this reduce play compared with stock parts?

A steel link assembly can reduce flex and perceived play versus softer stock components, but final feel depends on rod end condition and how securely fasteners are set.
