7075 aluminum steering upgrade for ARRMA KRATON 6S EXB

This GPM aftermarket steering block is precision machined from 7075-T6 aluminum for ARRMA KRATON 6S EXB 1/8 scale trucks and compatible platforms listed below. It is intended to replace ARA-1507 and to improve steering feel by reducing bearing play and allowing a larger outer bearing while retaining the original inner bearing size.

Supplied hardware includes the original-spec inner bearing 15x24x5mm and oversized outer bearings 8x19x6mm in place of the stock 8x16x5mm, plus red aluminum front hub nuts. Components are provided pre-assembled and the manufacturer suggests medium-strength thread adhesive on critical screws to prevent loosening under load.

Packing includes

  • Front Steering Block - 2pcs
  • Aluminum Front Hub Nut Red - 4pcs
  • Bearing 15x24x5 - 2pcs
  • Oversized Bearing 8x19x6 - 2pcs
  • Grade 12.9 Black Cap Head Screws 3x22 - 2pcs
  • Grade 12.9 Black Round Head Screws 3x6 - 4pcs

Original Name / Part No:

ARA-1507

Works with

  • ARRMA 1/8 KRATON 6S EXB 4X4 RTR BRUSHLESS SPEED TRUCK-ARA8708V6
  • ARRMA 1/8 NOTORIOUS 6S V6 4X4 BLX BRUSHLESS STUNT TRUCK RTR-ARA8611V6
  • ARRMA 1/8 KRATON 6S 4X4 BLX BRUSHLESS SPEED MONSTER TRUCK RTR-ARA8608V6

Use this alloy steering block as an upgrade for improved steering response and the option to fit larger outer bearings. Verify chassis compatibility before final installation, apply the recommended thread adhesive to screws, and confirm all pre-assembled parts are secure.

How does switching to the oversized outer bearing change steering feel?

Using the 8x19x6 outer bearing reduces lateral play at the hub, which translates into a firmer, more predictable steering response, especially under heavy braking or high-speed cornering.

Will I need spacers or shims to fit these bearings?

The part is designed to accept the supplied bearings without additional shims for the outer position; always check endplay and preload after installation.

Is any special thread locking compound recommended?

A medium-strength thread adhesive is suggested by the manufacturer to reduce screw back-out while still allowing future disassembly with standard tools.

Does this change affect servo load or geometry?

The machined alloy housing and tighter bearing fit can increase steering precision; verify servo centering and endpoint adjustments after installation to ensure geometry remains optimal.
