Designed as a direct replacement for the Arrma 6S platform (AR340073), this steering crank set eliminates the vulnerability of moulded plastic components and replaces them with robust aluminium construction. The set features a beautiful red anodised finish complemented by a laser-etched RC Overhaul logo on the drag link, delivering not only exceptional performance but also a clean, high-quality aesthetic that will make your RC monster truck, buggy or truggy stand out from the crowd.

RC Model Shop stocks a comprehensive range of genuine RC spares and upgrades from leading manufacturers including RC Overhaul, and our expert team understands exactly what UK RC enthusiasts need to keep their vehicles running at peak performance.

Key Features
- Aluminium Construction — The steering crank is manufactured from high-grade aluminium rather than the standard moulded plastic, providing substantially increased strength and durability that can withstand the repeated impacts and stresses of aggressive RC bashing without risk of cracking or breaking.
- Red Anodised Finish — The protective anodised coating not only delivers an eye-catching red colour that looks fantastic when installed, but also provides corrosion resistance and protection against wear, ensuring the component maintains its appearance and performance over time.
- Laser-Etched Logo — The RC Overhaul branding is precision laser-etched directly onto the drag link, creating a professional, finished appearance that demonstrates this is a quality upgrade component rather than a budget replacement part.
- Direct Replacement Design — This steering crank set is engineered as a direct replacement for the original AR340073 Arrma 6S plastic components, meaning installation is straightforward without requiring any modifications or additional parts to your existing vehicle.
- Enhanced Steering Precision — The rigidity of aluminium compared to plastic means less flex and deflection during cornering and directional changes, translating to more responsive and accurate steering feedback that helps you maintain better control at high speeds.
- Rebuild-Ready Solution — Whether you're rebuilding after a crash or simply looking to upgrade from the factory setup, this component gives you the perfect opportunity to elevate your vehicle's steering system to professional standards.
Technical Performance
The RC Overhaul Steering Crank Set represents a significant step up in engineering quality and material science compared to factory plastic components. Constructed from anodised aluminium, this steering assembly delivers superior rigidity and impact resistance that makes it an ideal choice for UK RC enthusiasts who demand reliability during intense bashing sessions. The anodising process creates a hard, protective oxide layer on the aluminium surface that resists corrosion, wear, and discolouration, meaning your red finish will remain vibrant and protected against the elements and repeated handling. The precision manufacturing ensures tight tolerances that maintain consistent steering response and accuracy, eliminating the flex and play that can develop in plastic components over time. For Arrma 6S platform vehicles—whether that's a Kraton, Typhon, Notorious, Felony, Big Rock, Fireteam or any other 6S-based model in the range—this steering crank set provides the strength needed for high-impact driving whilst maintaining the factory fitment and compatibility that means you can install it without any additional modifications or parts sourcing.

Frequently Asked Questions
- What Arrma 6S models is this steering crank set compatible with? — This steering crank set is designed as a direct replacement for the Arrma 6S platform and is compatible with the complete range of 6S vehicles, including the Kraton 6S V5, Typhon 6S V5, Notorious 6S V5, Felony 6S, Big Rock 6S, Fireteam 6S, and any other model built on the 6S platform architecture. It replaces the original plastic component AR340073.
- Why should I upgrade from the factory plastic steering crank to aluminium? — The factory plastic steering crank can become a weak point during aggressive bashing, particularly when landing jumps, hitting obstacles at high speed, or recovering from crashes. Aluminium is significantly more durable and resistant to impact damage, meaning your steering system will remain reliable and accurate through intensive use. The upgrade also provides better steering precision due to reduced flex and deflection, giving you improved handling and control.
- Is this suitable for beginners? — Whilst this is an upgrade component rather than a complete beginner's vehicle, it is absolutely suitable for anyone who already owns an Arrma 6S and wants to improve their vehicle's durability and performance. Installation is straightforward for anyone with basic RC maintenance knowledge, making it an accessible upgrade path for developing enthusiasts.
- Will this improve my RC car's steering response? — Yes. The rigidity of aluminium compared to plastic means less flex during cornering and directional inputs, which translates to more responsive and direct steering feel. You'll notice tighter, more accurate handling characteristics, particularly during high-speed driving or when making rapid directional changes.
- How does this compare to other steering upgrades available for RC cars UK? — The RC Overhaul Steering Crank Set stands out due to its combination of quality aluminium construction, protective anodised finish, and clean professional appearance. It offers genuine durability improvements over factory plastic without requiring any vehicle modifications, and the laser-etched branding indicates attention to detail in manufacturing and finishing that distinguishes premium upgrade parts from basic replacements.
- Does this component require any additional parts or modifications to install? — No. This is designed as a direct replacement for the factory AR340073 component, meaning installation uses the existing mounting points and hardware with no modifications required to your Arrma 6S vehicle.
