Aftermarket alloy steering for XV-01

This aftermarket alloy steering assembly is built for the Tamiya XV-01 platform and supplied as a 3pcs kit. It replaces the original plastic steering components with a solid machined alloy unit that includes fitted 5x8 bearings to stabilise the steering pivot and improve the link to the servo output horn.

Installation is aimed at hobbyists comfortable with XV-01 servicing: remove the stock plastic steering parts and re-use compatible linkages and fasteners where applicable. Make sure bearings are properly seated and confirm steering geometry is free of binding, since small misalignments at the servo horn can cause uneven steering behaviour during tuning or on different surfaces.

As a tuning upgrade, this assembly helps reduce steering play and keeps response more consistent during setup changes. Supplied as 3pcs, each item arrives pre-fitted with a 5x8 bearing for direct replacement when standard XV-01 steering dimensions remain in place.

It targets the common XV-01 steering layout; check your chassis details such as horn offset and linkage length before fitting to be certain of compatibility.
Bearings are factory fitted; if your maintenance practice uses retaining clips or adhesive you can add the preferred retention method after confirming seating.
Re-check steering centre, inspect for any binding through full travel, and tighten all fasteners to the recommended torque to prevent movement under load.
