This RC-scale aluminum steering block is crafted as a performance upgrade for the Axial SCX-10 Honcho and Dingo. The machined construction reduces deflection relative to the original plastic part, improving steering consistency while retaining a green scale appearance.
Role and compatibility: the part serves as a direct upgrade to the SCX-10 Honcho and Dingo steering assembly, supplying a stiffer anchor for the steering knuckle and lowering long-term wear on contact points. It is especially useful when running larger tires or when aiming for crisper steering response.
Fitting guidelines: pull the stock steering block and examine the fasteners and bushings for wear before installing the aluminum unit. Use thread-lock on metal fasteners where recommended and recheck steering clearance and free-play after mounting to avoid binding or over-constraint.
Tuning impact: increasing stiffness at the steering pivot alters steering feel and may speed up turn-in; compensate with shock damping and toe settings to retain predictable handling, particularly for technical crawling or fast trail driving.
