This 18mm rod end adapter is an RC-scale tie-rod component intended for narrow steering blocks that employ the FLA arm layout. It provides a compact connection between a turnbuckle or tie-rod and the steering block, maintaining the narrow footprint required by some scale and competitive arrangements.
The adapter is meant to offer a repeatable pivot for steering linkages, reducing side-to-side play and helping to keep steering geometry steady during cornering. It is specified by size and purpose rather than explicit chassis compatibility, so check that your steering block accepts an 18mm rod end adapter before installation.
Installation notes: install the part into the steering block position used for FLA arm configurations and use it with standard RC tie-rod assemblies. Confirm thread engagement and linkage alignment when assembling to avoid binding, and ensure full steering sweep is available after fitment.
