Overview
Sharpen up the steering on your Traxxas Unlimited Desert Racer with the Hot Racing Aluminum Adjustable Steering Bellcrank and Servo Saver. CNC-machined from solid aluminum and finished in a sleek black anodized coating, this super-tough fully-adjustable bellcrank assembly replaces the factory plastic steering with a stronger, more precise, and tunable system that's purpose-built for the punishing loads of a 1/7 desert racer.
The dual-spring system gives you two servo saver tension options — a heavy-duty (HD) spring for stiffer feel under aggressive driving, plus a medium-tension spring for stock-like response. The bellcrank reuses your factory ball bearings for smooth pivot action, ensuring the smoothest possible steering feel.
