Technical Performance
The Associated CR12 Steering Blocks represent precision engineering at its finest. These components are critical to your vehicle's handling characteristics, as they form part of the steering linkage system that translates your transmitter input into precise directional control. When steering blocks become worn, play develops in the system, leading to vague, unpredictable steering that makes it difficult to maintain smooth lines through corners and transitions. By replacing worn blocks with these genuine Associated parts, you restore the mechanical stiffness and accuracy that makes the CR12 such a capable platform. The blocks are manufactured to exacting tolerances, ensuring they integrate perfectly with the rest of your steering system. Whether you're running your CR12 on tarmac or rough terrain, these steering blocks will provide the reliable performance and durability you expect from genuine Associated components. The engineering quality inherent in these parts reflects Team Associated's reputation for precision manufacturing and attention to detail—hallmarks of a company that has been at the forefront of RC racing and performance for decades.

Some highland and remote areas may carry an extra delivery charge as couriers often apply surcharges in these locations. If you live in one of these areas, feel free to contact us before ordering so we can confirm the delivery options and costs for you.

Orders are dispatched Monday to Friday only. Some items may take a little longer and if that is the case we will always show the expected delivery time on the product page.
- If your order includes items with different dispatch times we will normally wait and send everything together once all items are in stock. If one of the items is going to take a while we will give you the choice either wait for everything to arrive or let us send the available items now and deliver the rest later. It is up to you.
- We use trusted delivery partners to make sure your order gets to you safely and on time. We use DPD for next working day deliveries and Royal Mail for the 2 day option.
