Kyosho Mini-Z AWD +0.2mm Alloy Steering Plate by GPM MZA049/+0.2  [MZA049/+0.2]

Alloy steering plate for Mini-Z AWD

This aftermarket steering plate is an aluminum upgrade for Kyosho Mini-Z AWD platforms, supplied as 1pcs. Its +0.2mm thickness shifts steering geometry subtly to help with alignment precision and predictable response during setup and tuning. The part is intended for RC-scale use on Mini-Z AWD builds and complements existing steering linkages without replacing servos or other major components.

Installation is straightforward for builders familiar with Mini-Z disassembly: remove the stock plate, test-fit the alloy plate to the steering knuckle and servo horn, and secure using the original hardware. No special tools beyond basic hex drivers are required, and builders should verify clearance and steering throw before final runs. The stiffer aluminum plate reduces flex under load compared with many stock plastic plates, making steering inputs feel more consistent during short course or on‑road Mini‑Z running.

In tuning terms the +0.2mm thickness acts as a small shim in the steering stack, which can affect toe and ackermann geometry when combined with different knuckle or link setups; use it as a targeted adjustment when you need slightly tighter steering precision without altering tie-rod lengths or replacing knuckles.
