Axial Yeti XL Adjustable Front Upper Tie Rod YTL054 Performance by GPM  [YTL054]

Front upper tie rod with adjustable length for Yeti XL

This aluminium front adjustable upper tie rod is built as an RC replacement or enhancement for the Axial Racing Yeti XL steering assembly. Packaged as a single pair, it focuses on making setup more repeatable and enabling fine control of front geometry, without any full-scale implication.

As a tuning component in the front steering linkage, the rod allows small incremental changes in length to influence toe and steering centring. That adjustability is handy when refining handling for different surfaces or tyre compounds. The aluminium construction offers reduced flex compared with typical plastic stock parts, improving steering consistency under load.

Fitting is straightforward for those experienced with suspension link work: swap the original upper tie rods for the adjustable pieces, ensure ball ends and threads match existing hardware, and set both sides to equal lengths before locking final toe. After fitting, sweep steering and suspension through their full range to check for clearance and smooth movement.

For drivers seeking a durable, adjustable front linkage on the Yeti XL, this aluminium upper tie rod is a direct upgrade to refine steering geometry and cut compliance from the stock assembly.
