Frequently Asked Questions
- What is the purpose of push rods in an RC car? — Push rods are essential steering linkage components that connect your servo to the steering blocks on the front of your RC vehicle. They transmit the servo's steering commands to the wheels, allowing precise directional control during driving. When steering input is received from your RC transmitter, the servo moves, which in turn moves the push rods, which then angles the wheels left or right for turning.
- Why choose aluminium push rods over plastic alternatives? — Aluminium push rods offer several advantages over plastic components, including superior strength, better precision through tighter tolerances, and greater resistance to bending under load during aggressive driving. They also tend to last longer and maintain consistent performance across countless driving sessions, making them a worthwhile upgrade for any serious RC enthusiast.
- Are these push rods compatible with my Traxxas RC car? — These Traxxas genuine push rods are designed to be compatible with the full range of Traxxas RC vehicles. However, we recommend checking your specific model's documentation or contacting our RC Model Shop team to confirm compatibility before purchasing, as different Traxxas models may use components of varying specifications.
- Do I need to assemble these push rods before installation? — No assembly is required. These push rods come pre-assembled with the rod ends already fitted and secured. You simply need to remove them from the packaging and install them directly onto your RC car by connecting them between the servo and the steering blocks using the appropriate mounting points on your vehicle.
- Why is the green-anodised finish important? — The green-anodised coating serves both aesthetic and functional purposes. Functionally, it provides excellent corrosion resistance, protecting the underlying aluminium from oxidation and rust, particularly important if your RC car is used in wet conditions. Aesthetically, it gives your vehicle a distinctive, professional appearance that stands out from standard black or silver alternatives.
- What makes Traxxas replacement parts better than generic alternatives? — Traxxas is the world's leading RC car manufacturer with decades of engineering expertise. Their genuine replacement parts are manufactured to the exact specifications and tolerances required for optimal performance with their vehicles. Using authentic Traxxas components ensures perfect fit, consistent performance, and compatibility with your existing setup, whereas generic alternatives may have slight variations that affect steering precision.
