ST Racing Concepts has released this Front Steering Servo Mount for the Traxxas TRX-4M 1:18 Crawler. The new CNC machined Aluminium mount reduces the flex and improves the power of your steering on your crawler.

The STRC high quality mount completely locks the steering servo in place and allows maximum transfer of power from the servo to the steering linkage. Available now in black, gun metal, orange, red and silver anodising.
