This RC-scale steering tie rod is built for the Axial Racing Yeti chassis and is supplied as a single pair. The construction uses a spring steel rod body combined with machined aluminium end fittings to limit thread wear where the linkage meets ball joints and steering knuckles.
Offered as an aftermarket replacement, the item concentrates on extended service life under the low-speed impacts and abrasion common in rock crawling and trail running. It links the servo output to the steering assembly and so contributes to steering reliability rather than changing overall vehicle dynamics.
Installation replaces the stock steering rod at the existing linkage points on the chassis and hubs. No special adapters are required; the component is intended to accept the same ball ends and mounting positions as the original Yeti rod. Always check your vehicle's linkage length and ball-end spacing before installation to ensure correct alignment.
For tuning purposes, this part is mainly a durability upgrade. The spring steel centre helps avoid stripped threads at the aluminium ends during repeated impacts, while the aluminium terminations provide a firmer contact surface for ball ends than many stock plastic parts.
