Overview
These are the stock rod ends for the Tekno RC SCT410.3, and they are slightly harder than the standard TKR5188 version. The firmer compound keeps the ball cup from stretching under load, so camber and steering links stay tight and your setup stays repeatable instead of going vague as the rod ends wear in.
They are also lighter than the original TKR5051 rod ends, and they use an M4 thread, which means they require TKR5123 turnbuckles (M4 thread) to install. They are a direct replacement for TKR5188 on cars already set up for the M4 linkage. Eight pieces per pack covers a full refresh of the links.
