Technical Performance
The FTX Outback 3 steering hub carriers are precision-engineered components that form a critical part of your 1/10 scale trail crawler's steering and suspension system. These carriers are designed to work seamlessly with the FTX Outback 3.0's independent front suspension arrangement, providing secure mounting points for your steering tie-rods and wheel hubs. The engineering reflects FTX's commitment to producing durable RC crawler components that can handle the punishment of serious off-road driving, including high-speed cornering, aggressive rock crawling, and repeated impacts against obstacles. The hub carriers are manufactured to tight tolerances ensuring perfect alignment with your suspension geometry, which is essential for maintaining precise steering response and predictable handling characteristics. For UK-based RC crawlers who take their vehicles to challenging natural terrain and man-made obstacles, these components must be robust and reliable, and the FTX Outback 3 hub carriers deliver on both fronts.

Frequently Asked Questions
- What is a steering hub carrier and why do I need replacement ones? — A steering hub carrier is the component that connects your front wheel hub to your steering tie-rods and suspension arms. These carriers can become damaged through impacts with rocks or obstacles during trail crawling, or they may wear out over time with heavy use. Replacement carriers restore precise steering geometry and ensure your RC crawler responds accurately to your transmitter inputs. If your steering feels loose, unresponsive or misaligned, damaged hub carriers are often the culprit.
- Will these hub carriers fit my FTX Outback 3.0? — Yes, these steering hub carriers are specifically designed for the FTX Outback 3.0 RTR range, compatible with all variants including the Paso (yellow and blue) and Treka (orange and blue) models. They are genuine OEM FTX parts engineered to fit perfectly without modification. If you own any FTX Outback 3.0 1/10 scale trail crawler, these parts are made for your vehicle.
- How do I install these hub carriers on my RC crawler? — Installation involves removing your front wheels and disconnecting your steering tie-rods from the original carriers, then removing the carriers from the upper and lower suspension arms. The new carriers simply slide into place and are secured with the same fasteners, then your tie-rods are reconnected. No special tools or additional parts are required, and the process typically takes 15-20 minutes for both sides.
- Are these hub carriers better than upgrading to aluminium alternatives? — The FTX Outback 3 hub carriers are engineered to provide excellent balance between strength, weight and durability for standard trail crawling. Many UK-based crawlers find the stock FTX components perfectly adequate for recreational and competitive use. Aluminium aftermarket upgrades can reduce weight slightly, but the OEM FTX carriers offer reliability and exact fitment at a fraction of the cost.
