GPM Racing Aluminium Front Tie Rods with Stabilizer for C Hub - 11pcs Set for Traxxas 1/10 Rustler 4x4 VXL-67076-4 (RUS4049F)

Machined front tie rods and stabiliser for C-Hub integration

This 11pcs upgrade set provides a direct aluminium replacement for the upper tie rod mounts on the TRAXXAS RUSTLER VXL, focusing on improved stiffness where the linkage meets the C-Hub and front gearbox centre support. The assembly combines machined tie rod holders and a triangular stabiliser to reduce flex and maintain toe alignment under dynamic loads.

Adjustment procedure: insert a small driver or alignment tool into the tie rod positioning aperture and rotate to alter length; the linkage uses counter-clockwise threads for length changes to allow reliable trim without removing the assembly. The stabiliser geometry positions the rod to increase steering precision and front-end support.

The set includes a clear parts breakdown for servicing both sides of the front linkage while enabling reuse of compatible linkage ends, emphasising precision fitment and predictable steering characteristics.

Engineered for precise front-end control, this GPM aluminium set enhances steering predictability and alignment repeatability at the C-Hub and front gearbox support mounting points.

What torque settings should I use on the stainless screws?

Use light to moderate torque to avoid thread deformation in the chassis; hand-tighten then incrementally set torque while checking alignment. Exact values depend on chassis material but avoid over-tightening stainless screws into plastic bosses.

Can the tie rod be adjusted without removing the mount?

Yes, the design allows on-vehicle trimming via the positioning hole; insert a small driver and rotate the rod to alter length using the counter-clockwise thread for adjustment.

Are these compatible with aftermarket C-Hubs?

Compatibility depends on the aftermarket C-Hub geometry; these parts match stock RUSTLER VXL mounting points so verify hole spacing and clearance before fitting custom hubs.

What maintenance is recommended for longevity?

Inspect fasteners periodically for tightness, check for wear at reused linkage ends, and keep threaded adjustment clean and lightly lubricated to prevent binding and ensure repeatable trim adjustments. Write Product Review Please sign in your account before you can write any review. Sign In Close
