FAQ

Bellcrank post reinforcement for heavy use

This aftermarket support screw reinforces the steering bellcrank posts on TRAXXAS X-MAXX 6S/8S rigs and is aimed at riders who push their trucks hard. The hardened 4140 steel material increases resistance to bending and helps prevent breakage where the bellcranks meet the front lower bulkhead.

Installation notes: place the support screw into the factory hole at the front lower bulkhead under the steering bellcranks, tighten to the recommended torque for your chassis, and apply threadlocker as advised to avoid loosening from vibration. The part is a reinforcement and tuning aid for durability rather than an alteration of steering geometry.

The package contents listed include the steering bellcrank post screw and one Grade 12.9 black round head screw 3x16, quantity 1 pcs each. Confirm clearances and fastener engagement before finalising assembly to prevent interference with other components.

Will this alter steering geometry or response?

No, the screw is intended to reinforce the mounting point and should not change steering geometry. Its effect is to reduce flex and the risk of component failure rather than change handling characteristics.

Are any special tools or torques required?

Standard driver tools are sufficient; tighten to the chassis recommended torque and use threadlocker to secure the fastener. Avoid over-tightening to prevent damage to the bulkhead or surrounding parts.
