TRAXXAS Slash 2WD Short Course Spring Steel Adjustable Tie Rods by GPM SLA2W160ST  [SLA2W160ST]

TRAXXAS Slash 2WD Adjustable Tie Rods

A set of spring-steel adjustable tie rods engineered for 1/10 short course Slash 2WD platforms, intended as RC-scale steering linkage replacements to stabilise toe and improve feedback under load. The design emphasises durable material choice and simple length adjustment rather than cosmetic modification.

Material and function: the tie rods use spring steel for its fatigue resistance and bend-recovery, with an increased section thickness noted for added rigidity where steering inputs and impacts concentrate. Adjustable turnbuckle-style lengths let you tune toe-in/toe-out quickly during setup changes or after crash repairs.

Installation and tuning role: these tie rods replace stock linkages on compatible Slash 2WD short course setups, using standard thread-in adjustment and lock nut retention to prevent length change under vibration. Adjusting rod length alters static toe and can be used to fine-tune corner entry and straight-line stability; verify servo horn and steering block clearances after fitting and recheck wheel alignment at ride height.

Included hardware and items: the kit lists dedicated fasteners and lock nuts to fit the assembly so you can install the tie rods without sourcing additional small parts. Check each threaded joint for proper engagement and secure lock nuts after adjustment.

For short course TRAXXAS Slash 2WD users looking for a straightforward, stronger steering linkage, the spring steel adjustable tie rods offer a balance of durability and tuning convenience while remaining an RC-scale replacement part.
