HPI Baja Steel Tie Rod with Ball Links by GPM SBJ160  [SBJ160]

Steel tie rod for HPI Baja

This steel tie rod assembly with ball links is an RC-scale replacement part intended for HPI Baja platforms, offering a metal alternative to standard plastic linkages. It serves as a steering and suspension linkage component, designed to resist wear and provide more consistent geometry under load.

Installation notes: remove the stock tie rod ends and replace them with the ball-link assembly, taking care to match left and right lengths and thread directions. Basic hand tools such as hex drivers and pliers are sufficient, and final setup should include a range-of-motion check to avoid binding. Do not modify or reuse damaged ball links.

Tuning role: upgrading to steel tie rods helps maintain steering alignment during aggressive driving and provides a firmer connection for fine turnbuckle adjustments. This part is primarily for hobby-level adjustments to steering and suspension behavior and should be used only on RC models.

Use this steel tie rod to replace worn linkage parts or to add rigidity for more precise steering feedback; verify fitment on your Baja chassis before final installation.
