Overview
TKR5187B hard 6.8mm rod ends are the factory rod ends included with the Tekno RC EB48 2.0, 2.1 and 2.2, ET48 2.0 and 2.2, MT48 2.0, NB48 2.0, 2.1 and 2.2, and NT48 2.0 and 2.2 kits, and they serve as the replacement part for all of those vehicles. Eight pieces come in the pack, enough to refresh a full set of camber and steering links.
Rod ends are a wear item: once they go soft or sloppy the car picks up unwanted slop in camber and toe, and the handling turns vague. The harder compound used here holds its shape and keeps a tight grip on the ball, so your setup stays where you dialed it rather than drifting over a race weekend.
Key Features
- Hard compound rod ends in the 6.8mm ball size
- 8 pieces per pack for a full link refresh
- Factory rod end included with the 48-series 2.x kits
- Snap-fit onto standard Tekno RC 6.8mm pivot balls
- Genuine Tekno RC replacement part
Performance Benefits
- Harder material resists stretching and keeps links slop-free
- Consistent camber and toe settings through long race days
- Sharper, more predictable steering feel than worn rod ends
- Reliable retention on the pivot ball under heavy suspension loads
Usage Notes
- Check your kit manual for the correct rod end and ball combination
- Replace rod ends as a set so link stiffness stays even side to side
- Use a rod end plier or ball cup tool to seat them without damage
- Hard compound rod ends can feel tight at first and will bed in
