Tamiya TT02B Spring Steel Steering Tie Rod with Plastic Ends by GPM TT2B047P  [TT2B047P]

Aftermarket steering tie rod for TT02B

This GPM TT2B047P steering tie rod is an aftermarket replacement part intended for RC-scale Tamiya TT02B chassis. The link uses spring steel for the shaft combined with plastic end interfaces to retain factory-style fitment while offering improved resistance to bending under steering loads common in scale on-road and light off-road use.

Supplied as 1 pr, the component replaces the stock steering link on compatible TT02B setups. The plastic ends preserve the original ball- or stud-type attachment geometry so you can reuse existing linkage hardware without modification. The spring steel center section provides a balance between stiffness and bend recovery, useful when trimming steering return and toe characteristics.

Installation notes: this part installs into the standard steering linkage positions on the TT02B platform, using the vehicle's existing linkage hardware. Check retained clearance to suspension and servo horn travel after fitting, and verify steering centring before finalising set-up. No special tools beyond basic hobby maintenance items are required for standard swap-over.

Role in tuning: use this tie rod when you want a firmer steering link than standard plastic rods, and when you need reliable geometry under repeated steering inputs. It is suited for adjustable steering toe experiments and for hobbyists who prefer metal center links while keeping lightweight plastic ends to reduce binding.
