FT9 steering hub plate details

The Factory Pro O-SCP041L steering hub plate is an aftermarket graphite replacement designed for the Schumacher FT9 platform and is supplied as one piece. It offers a +1mm offset to make modest alterations to steering geometry as part of setup tuning for 1/10 electric touring models.

Placed at the FT9 RL hub spot referenced in the part name, the plate replaces the OEM hub plate while leaving other suspension components unchanged. The graphite material reduces weight and increases rigidity versus many stock plastic options.

Fitment uses standard FT9 hub removal and reassembly steps: remove the wheel and hub, swap the hub plate for the Factory Pro unit, ensure bearings and kingpin sit correctly, then check toe and steering roll centre on the bench before running. Change one setup item at a time and test thoroughly.

Does this require chassis modification?

No chassis modification is normally required. The plate is a direct replacement for the FT9 RL hub plate, but always verify the part orientation and clearance on your car.

How should I evaluate its effect on track?

Measure baseline toe and steering feel, fit the plate, then test with small incremental changes. Note differences in turn-in, mid-corner grip and steering return to determine if the offset helps your setup.

Is graphite durable enough for racing use?

Graphite is commonly used for lightweight, stiff components. It performs well in many racing applications, but inspect parts regularly and replace if you find cracks or excessive wear.
