RDRP B5 aluminium steering plate

Revolution Design Racing Products have a new aluminium option part for the Team Associated B5 series of buggies available. The aluminium steering plate replaces the kit’s plastic rack with a more sturdy solution for added rigidity and better looks. The CNC-machined 7075-T6 aluminium part considerably strengthens the steering assembly for less slop, a more precise steering reaction and less flex, resulting in a rock solid steering feeling and more durability in the event of a crash. The RDRP B5RM/MM Aluminium Steering Plate fits the B5, B5M and T5M kit and it comes blue anodised and laser-etched to match the remainder of RDRP’s Team Associated option parts.
