Overview
The Team Associated AS92523 Steering Links and Pivot Ball Sockets are essential replacement components designed specifically for the RC10B84 platform, one of the most iconic competition-grade RC buggies available to UK RC enthusiasts. Whether you are running your RC car UK on the track, at the skate park, or enjoying weekend bashing sessions, the steering system is critical to maintaining responsive and precise handling. These genuine Associated steering linkage components ensure your RC buggy maintains the exact steering geometry and performance characteristics that Team Associated engineered into the RC10B84D and RC10B84 designs.
If you are an experienced RC racer or a dedicated hobbyist who demands authenticity and reliability from your equipment, having spare steering links and pivot ball sockets on hand is essential maintenance practice. Over time, even the best-engineered steering components can wear, and worn steering hardware can introduce play, inconsistency and unpredictable handling behaviour into your RC buggy. The AS92523 gives you the opportunity to refresh your steering system with factory-correct parts that restore the tight, responsive steering feel your RC10B84 was designed to deliver. This is not a compromise upgrade or a generic alternative—this is genuine Team Associated engineering matched to your specific model.
RC Model Shop stocks this part because we understand that serious RC enthusiasts in the UK need access to genuine OEM spares that keep their machines performing at their best. Whether you are preparing for club racing, training runs, or simply maintaining your collection to the highest standard, the AS92523 is a straightforward and essential addition to your spares box.
Key Features
- Factory-Correct Design — These steering links and pivot ball sockets are manufactured by Team Associated to match the exact specifications of the RC10B84 platform, ensuring perfect fitment and maintaining the precise steering geometry your buggy was engineered with.
- Direct Replacement Parts — Rather than guessing at compatibility or settling for aftermarket alternatives, the AS92523 lets you replace worn steering components with genuine Associated parts that guarantee proper function and handling characteristics.
- Essential Maintenance Component — Steering hardware experiences regular wear during normal RC use, and keeping spare steering links and ball sockets allows you to maintain consistent handling without downtime or compromised performance.
- Smooth Steering Response — Fresh, unworn pivot ball sockets and steering linkage deliver the tight, responsive steering feel that competition-grade RC buggies require, helping you maintain control during fast cornering and precise track driving.

Technical Performance
The steering system is one of the most critical aspects of RC buggy performance, and Team Associated has engineered the RC10B84 platform with precision steering geometry that demands quality components. The AS92523 steering links and pivot ball sockets are manufactured to tight tolerances and designed to minimise play and deflection during aggressive driving. Pivot ball sockets are load-bearing components that experience constant articulation as you steer your RC buggy through corners, transitions, and track features. Quality ball sockets maintain smooth, consistent steering response without binding or stiction that could degrade handling precision. When these components wear, you may notice increased steering lag, uneven steering response, or a vague feeling through the steering wheel. Fresh steering links and pivot ball sockets restore the direct, responsive steering feel that makes the RC10B84 such a capable track machine. The engineering and material selection in genuine Team Associated components ensures durability and consistent performance, making the AS92523 a worthwhile investment in maintaining your RC buggy to the standard it deserves.
