Stiffer steering rack for MICRO-T control

This aluminium steering rack is a small-scale replacement for the stock plastic component used on Team Losi MICRO-T cars and is identified by the MI-05/LB model number. It functions as the direct steering linkage between the servo and steering knuckles, reducing compliance in the steering chain.

Switching to aluminium reduces deformation under load, helping to keep toe settings and steering geometry stable during cornering. That leads to a firmer steering sensation and improved consistency when making small steering adjustments or trimming endpoint travel.

When fitting, ensure the steering arm geometry and end-link lengths match the original layout so neutral toe is preserved and no binding occurs through suspension travel. Check servo horn engagement and confirm set-screws or retaining hardware are compatible.

Use this rack as part of a precision steering setup: pair it with proper servo centring, measured toe, and tuned link geometry to sharpen entry and steady mid-corner behaviour on compact electric buggies.

Keep your tie-rod lengths identical to the stock setup and verify toe at full droop and at ride height after installation to ensure neutral alignment is unchanged.
Inspect for burrs and ensure retaining screws remain tight. Aluminium racks are low maintenance but check link ends for wear and re-tighten hardware after initial running.
Yes, the reduced steering compliance benefits precision across surfaces, especially when you combine it with surface-appropriate toe and steering rates.
