This aluminium steering tie rod kit is intended for the Tamiya CW-01 (Lunch Box) chassis and is catalogued as LB160TM. It incorporates an anti-thread adjustment design and comes with a servo horn for direct replacement of the stock linkages.
For RC-scale steering setups the aluminium link offers greater stiffness and a more predictable response compared with standard plastic parts, while the anti-thread feature helps keep adjustment points from loosening during use.
Fitment and installation: position the tie rod between the steering bellcrank and the servo horn, check spline fitment on your servo and set travel end points prior to final tightening. Use appropriate hobby fasteners and apply thread-lock where metal fasteners may loosen from vibration. No specialised tools are required; common RC tools will suffice.
Tuning recommendations: use this part to reduce play in the linkages and improve steering repeatability; adjust servo endpoints and trim to dial in steering without exceeding safe travel limits for the chassis.
