Overview
Transform the steering system on your Traxxas X-Maxx with the Hot Racing Aluminum Adjustable Servo Saver Bellcrank. This complete steering assembly replaces most of the factory plastic Traxxas 7746 components with CNC-machined 6061 aluminum, delivering a stronger, more precise, and fully adjustable servo saver bellcrank that's purpose-built for the high steering loads of an 8S monster truck.
The dual-spring system lets you tune servo saver tension to your driving style — run the black medium spring for stock-like feel, or step up to the silver hard spring for sharper, more direct steering response. Either way, you get the rigidity of aluminum, the smoothness of factory ball bearings, and the bulletproof reliability of a double-shear design.
Key Features
- CNC-machined 6061 aluminum construction
- Anodized blue and black for durability and visual appeal
- Adjustable servo saver with two spring tensions included
- Retains stock double-shear design for maximum reliability
- Reuses factory ball bearings for smooth pivot action
- Direct replacement for most Traxxas 7746 steering components
Performance Benefits
- Stronger and stiffer than the stock plastic bellcrank
- Tunable servo saver tension for personalized steering feel
- Sharper, more responsive steering under high cornering loads
- Eliminates flex and slop common to factory plastic parts
- Long-lasting aluminum survives the punishment of 8S power
Usage Notes
Requires use of the stock bearings and some of the stock hardware for installation. Recommended to use removable-type thread lock on any screws threading into metal. Optional use of light grease on the servo saver cam surfaces can smooth servo saver action. The black spring (installed) matches stock Traxxas tension; the silver spring is stiffer for racers who want more direct steering feel.
