This Factory Pro aftermarket steering hub plate is specified for the Schumacher FT9 platform and replaces the front right (FR) hub plate with a graphite component intended for RC touring applications. The plate is supplied as 1pcs and mirrors the FT9 front steering shape and mounting holes, allowing a direct swap without altering the chassis.
Fitting steps are simple: remove the original FR hub plate and retain the factory screws, align the graphite plate with the steering knuckle and tie-rod apertures, then fasten using the existing hardware. After installation, recheck steering geometry and servo horn alignment to ensure neutral toe settings and full, unobstructed travel. This note is relevant only to the Schumacher FT9 RC chassis and does not imply any non-RC application.
Used as a tuning part, the graphite material reduces flex versus many stock plastics, resulting in a firmer steering feel and more predictable feedback under high cornering loads on track. Install this part when you want a stiffer front-end response or need to replace a worn FR hub plate on a Schumacher FT9.
