7075-T6 steering knuckle for TB8 series

This aftermarket steering knuckle is produced for YIKONG YK7081 TB8 models and is machined from 7075-T6 aluminium to strengthen critical steering points while keeping additional mass to a minimum. It replaces factory part number 80004 and suits hobbyists performing routine repairs or straightforward hop-up upgrades aimed at better bearing life and sharper steering response.

The kit increases bearing sizes to lower wear: inner bearing upgraded to 20x30x7mm (stock 20x27x4mm) and outer bearing to 15x24x5mm (stock 15x21x4mm). Bigger bearings spread loads more evenly and help the steering system resist wear under repeated impacts, without altering the core chassis geometry.

All necessary mounting hardware is supplied and assemblies arrive pre-assembled where practical. For reliable installation, use medium-strength threadlocker on mating screws and respect recommended torque values for M3 fasteners to avoid stripping threads in aluminium components.

  • Steering knuckle, 7075-T6 aluminum body
  • Inner bearings 20x30x7mm, outer bearings 15x24x5mm
  • Mounting screws, pins and M3 nuts as supplied for direct replacement

Compatible Models

  • YIKONG YK7081 TB8 1/8 4WD RC Car
  • YIKONG YK8081 1/8 DF8 4WD Short Course Truck

As a precision aluminium hop-up for TB8-series kits, this knuckle emphasises durability and reduced bearing wear while remaining easy to fit for routine tuning and repairs.

Yes; the listed compatible models include both YIKONG YK7081 TB8 and YK8081 DF8 short course truck variants.
Inspect bearing seating and fastener torque after the first few runs, and reapply threadlocker if necessary. Regular checks will extend service life.
The knuckle is supplied to replace factory part number 80004; retain old parts only if you need them for spares or comparison.
This is an aftermarket hop-up designed to fit without chassis modification; it does not alter the chassis design and is intended to improve longevity rather than change original specifications.
