TRAXXAS X-MAXX 8S aluminum servo mount, tie rod & 25T servo horn by GPM TXM024N  [TXM024N]

Aluminum servo mount set for X-MAXX

This GPM TXM024N kit adapts the servo mounting and linkage on TRAXXAS X-MAXX platforms to accept larger servos of the same footprint as the stock 2075x. The set focuses on replacing stamped or plastic mounting components with machined 6061-T6 aluminum parts to improve mounting rigidity and maintain alignment under heavy load.

Included hardware in the original package covers the servo mount, a single aluminum tie rod, a 25T aluminum servo horn, assorted stainless steel screws in multiple lengths, and small shims for trimming fit and preload. The parts list allows direct replacement of the stock mount locations without needing extra fabrication when the target servo matches the bolt pattern and dimensions of the original 2075x style units.

Installation notes: measure your servo case dimensions and horn spline alignment before fitting, retain correct horn index and centering shims, and torque cap head screws to a level appropriate for aluminum-to-aluminum contact to avoid thread stripping. The aluminum mount changes compliance compared with plastic parts, so recheck steering endpoints and trim after installation and during initial runs.

Tuning role: use this kit when you require a firmer steering response and reduced flex between the servo and steering linkage, for example when upgrading to a higher-torque metal-geared servo on 8S setups where control precision matters. Expect more consistent steering geometry under repeated loads, which helps with predictable handling during tuning.

The TXM024N set is a straightforward aluminum upgrade for TRAXXAS X-MAXX owners who need a stronger servo mounting solution for larger servos, with hardware included to cover common mounting details.
