Stronger Steering Links for the Juggernaut

To enhance steering reliability on heavy-duty monster truck runs, the Tamiya 53385 Aluminum Steering Rods provide robust, gold-anodised links. These rods reduce flex in the linkage system and help maintain consistent steering feel over time.

Kit Highlights

Material: Gold anodised aluminum for added strength and an attractive look
Variety of Lengths: Includes rods A (53mm), B (72mm), C (115mm), and D (130mm)
Complete Set: Comes with twelve double thread shafts and fourteen black plastic rod ends

How long does fitting usually take?

A basic swap can be done in under an hour for experienced hands; expect more time if you need to remove front assemblies or adjust link lengths for precise geometry.

Are thread sizes standard for upgrades?

The kit uses common double thread shafts suited to many RC rod end types, but verify thread compatibility with any aftermarket components before fitting.

Should I replace plastic rod ends with metal ones?

Plastic rod ends are fine for general use and reduce weight; metal rod ends add durability under heavy loads but may transfer more shock to other components.

Any tips to prevent binding after install?

Make sure each rod moves freely through its rod end, set link lengths evenly on both sides, and check for interference with suspension travel before finalising.
