TRAXXAS 1/8 X-Maxx Aluminium Steering Bellcrank Support by GPM TXM048C  [TXM048C]

Aluminium steering bellcrank support

This aluminium steering bellcrank support is an aftermarket replacement designed for TRAXXAS 1/8 X-Maxx platforms, offered by GPM under model TXM048C. It serves as a structural upgrade to the stock steering assembly, replacing weaker materials with a machined aluminium support that targets steering flex and durability without altering linkage geometry.

Intended role: the part acts as a mount and pivot support for the bellcrank assembly, reducing unwanted movement under load and helping maintain consistent steering response during aggressive off-road runs. It is aimed at hobbyists seeking a straightforward hardware upgrade to improve steering feel and longevity.

Installation notes: the component is a direct-fit replacement for the factory steering support on compatible X-Maxx units and typically uses existing mounting points and hardware. Basic teardown of the front bulkhead and removal of the original bellcrank support are required, followed by reassembly using stock screws. Verify alignment and binding free travel before finalising setup.

For builders focused on steering consistency and component durability on 1/8 X-Maxx trucks, this GPM aluminium support provides a simple hardware upgrade that integrates with stock linkages and prioritises mechanical stiffness without requiring additional modifications.
