Technical Performance
These steering posts represent ARRMA's commitment to engineering excellence and component reliability. Manufactured from premium aluminium alloy, they combine lightweight construction with exceptional durability to withstand the rigours of RC 4x4 operation. The aluminium material choice is critical — it provides the strength necessary to resist bending and deformation under load, whilst remaining significantly lighter than steel alternatives, which would negatively impact your vehicle's weight distribution and handling. The precision manufacturing process ensures that each post meets exacting dimensional specifications, guaranteeing perfect fit to your ARRMA 4x4 chassis and steering linkage components without any forcing or adjustment required. This precision fit is what eliminates steering slop — that frustrating looseness that develops in steering systems over time due to wear. Unlike cheaper aftermarket alternatives that may have loose tolerances and wear quickly, these ARRMA-engineered posts maintain their tight fit and responsive feel through extensive use. Whether you're operating your RC car in dusty, muddy, or sandy conditions, or on smooth tarmac, these steering posts deliver consistent performance and reliable steering response that lets you focus on enjoying your RC driving experience rather than worrying about equipment failure.
What's in the Box
Frequently Asked Questions
- What are steering posts and why would I need replacement parts? — Steering posts are critical chassis components that connect your RC vehicle's steering linkage system to the main chassis. Through regular use, especially aggressive bashing and racing, steering posts can wear out, bend slightly, or develop play that makes steering feel loose and unresponsive. Replacing them with quality parts like the ARRMA Steering Post (2) 4x4 restores that tight, responsive steering feel and ensures your vehicle handles exactly as the manufacturer intended.
- Will these fit my ARRMA 4x4 vehicle? — Yes, absolutely. These steering posts are manufactured by ARRMA specifically as replacement parts for ARRMA 4x4 models. The part number Z-AR340137 identifies them as genuine ARRMA components engineered to fit ARRMA 4x4 vehicles perfectly without modification. Always check your specific vehicle's parts diagram to confirm compatibility, but if you own an ARRMA 4x4, these are the correct replacement parts.
- How do I know if my steering posts need replacing? — Common signs include loose or unresponsive steering that requires excessive transmitter movement to achieve vehicle response, visible play in the front steering linkage when you physically move the wheels by hand, or difficulty maintaining precise steering control during racing. If you notice any of these symptoms, replacing your steering posts should be one of your first troubleshooting steps.
- Are these suitable for both casual and competitive use? — Completely. Whether you're a casual weekend basher enjoying your RC car UK with friends or a competitive racer pushing your ARRMA 4x4 to the limit at organised events, these genuine ARRMA steering posts deliver the precision and durability needed for both applications. The precision manufacturing and quality aluminium construction ensure reliable performance at any level of use.
- How difficult is installation? — Installation is straightforward for anyone with basic RC knowledge and appropriate tools. The precision fit means these posts go into place easily without forcing or adjustment. If you're not confident, your local RC hobby shop or experienced RC community members can typically help. The parts come as a pair, allowing you to replace both steering posts simultaneously, which is recommended for optimal steering balance.
- What makes ARRMA steering posts better than cheap alternatives? — Genuine ARRMA steering posts are engineered and manufactured to exacting tolerances by the brand that designed your vehicle. Cheap aftermarket alternatives often have loose tolerances, use lower-quality materials, wear quickly, and may not fit properly. By choosing genuine ARRMA parts, you're investing in compatibility, longevity, and consistent performance, which ultimately saves you money by avoiding repeated replacements and maintaining your vehicle's resale value.
