Overview
The ARRMA Steering Parts Set (ARA340179) is an essential replacement component for owners of ARRMA RC vehicles across the UK. This high-quality steering parts set provides ideal replacement parts for your kit-supplied items, ensuring your RC car UK experience remains responsive and reliable. Whether you're running an ARRMA monster truck, short course truck, stadium truck, buggy or street bash vehicle, maintaining your steering system with genuine OEM parts is crucial for consistent performance and handling on the track or off-road terrain.
Engineered with precision manufacturing and quality composite materials, this steering parts set represents ARRMA's commitment to durability and performance. The revised design has been specifically developed to provide increased clearance between the steering parts and the chassis, preventing stones and debris from jamming in the steering mechanism—a common issue for RC enthusiasts who bash their vehicles in outdoor environments. This is particularly valuable if you're running a ready to run RC vehicle that sees regular action in varied terrain.
Compatible with numerous ARRMA models from their extensive range of brushless RC trucks and buggies, this steering set is a genuine spare part that maintains factory specifications and performance standards. Whether you're replacing worn components after intensive use or upgrading from older kit-supplied parts, the ARRMA Steering Parts Set delivers the quality and reliability you expect from an authorised ARRMA spare part.
Key Features
- Strong composite material construction — The steering parts are manufactured from robust composite material specifically selected for long-lasting durability in all conditions, whether you're bashing in wet weather, running on rocky terrain, or competing on smooth racing surfaces. This material choice ensures the components can withstand the rigours of regular RC use without becoming brittle or failing prematurely.
- Precision manufactured for consistent steering operation — Each component in this steering set is precision engineered to exacting tolerances, ensuring your RC vehicle maintains consistent and responsive steering characteristics across multiple driving sessions. This precision manufacturing is essential for maintaining the handling characteristics your vehicle was designed for from the factory.
- Revised design with increased chassis clearance — The updated design of this steering parts set includes improved clearance between the steering components and the chassis, directly preventing stones, dirt and debris from becoming jammed in the steering mechanism. This design improvement significantly reduces maintenance requirements and extends the lifespan of your steering system, particularly important for off-road and bashing applications.
- Complete replacement set — This set includes all the essential steering components you'll need: servo link, Ackermann link, steering bell cranks and bushings. Having all components in one set ensures compatibility and makes replacement straightforward without needing to source multiple individual parts separately.
Technical Performance
The ARRMA Steering Parts Set is engineered to the same precision standards as the components found in ARRMA's ready to run RC vehicles, ensuring seamless integration and performance characteristics. The composite material used in this steering set offers an excellent balance between strength and weight, critical factors in RC vehicle design where unsprung mass directly impacts handling and suspension performance. The bushings included in the set provide smooth, consistent articulation for the steering linkages, allowing precise translation of servo input to wheel movement. The servo link, Ackermann link and steering bell cranks work together as a complete system to deliver the steering geometry your ARRMA vehicle requires, whether it's a monster truck requiring responsive high-speed turning, a short course truck demanding aggressive cornering, a stadium truck built for stadium racing, or a buggy engineered for precision handling. The revised design that provides increased clearance is particularly important in real-world bashing scenarios where stones and dirt ingestion can cause binding and premature wear. This steering set maintains factory specifications across all compatible ARRMA models, from their 1/10 scale vehicles including the BIG ROCK, GRANITE, SENTON, KRATON, OUTCAST and VORTEKS lines, through to their 1/8 scale offerings including the INFRACTION, TYPHON and VENDETTA models.

Frequently Asked Questions
- Which ARRMA RC models is this steering parts set compatible with? — The ARRMA Steering Parts Set ARA340179 is compatible with a wide range of ARRMA vehicles including the 1/10 BIG ROCK 223S, 1/10 GRANITE 223S and earlier versions, 1/10 SENTON models (both 223S and 3S versions), 1/10 VORTEKS models, 1/10 KRATON 4S, 1/10 OUTCAST 4S, as well as 1/8 scale models including the INFRACTION, TYPHON and VENDETTA. Always check your specific model number against the fitment list to confirm compatibility before ordering.
- Why would I need a replacement steering parts set? — Steering components experience wear and stress during normal RC operation, particularly in competitive driving or aggressive bashing. Components may become damaged from collisions, stone strikes, or simply wear out from thousands of steering inputs over time. Replacing these parts with genuine OEM ARRMA components ensures your vehicle maintains its original handling characteristics and steering responsiveness. The revised design also makes this an excellent upgrade option for older vehicles that suffer from stones jamming in the steering.
- How often should I replace my steering parts? — The lifespan of steering components varies based on usage intensity, terrain type and driving style. Competitive drivers may replace steering parts more frequently than casual bashers. If you notice binding, roughness or unresponsive steering, it's time to inspect and potentially replace these components. Regular maintenance and inspection of your RC vehicle's steering system will help you identify wear before failure occurs.
- Is this suitable for beginners? — This is a replacement spare part rather than a complete vehicle, so it's designed for existing ARRMA RC vehicle owners performing maintenance or repairs. Beginners should start with a complete ready to run RC vehicle, and then refer to maintenance guides and video tutorials when it comes time to replace worn steering components. Many RC hobby shops offer installation services if you're uncomfortable performing the replacement yourself.
- What is the difference between this genuine ARRMA part and aftermarket alternatives? — The official ARRMA Steering Parts Set ARA340179 is manufactured to exact factory specifications, ensuring perfect fitment and performance in ARRMA vehicles. Genuine parts maintain the engineering tolerances and material specifications that ARRMA's vehicle designs depend on. Aftermarket alternatives may offer lower prices but can vary in quality, fit and durability. Using genuine OEM parts ensures your vehicle performs as the manufacturer intended.
