Yeah Racing M-08 alloy & titanium optionals Posted: 04 Sep 2019 12:30 AM PDT Yeah Racing have announced the release of new optional parts for the Tamiya M-08 M-chassis on-road car. First up is an aluminium steering assembly that was designed to replace the standard plastic parts for a ball-raced construction that adds both precision and strength. Machined from high-quality 7075 alloy and coming black anodised, the alloy steering ball cranks and steering plate will greatly improve stability while the ball bearings ensure smooth steering action while taking out most of the slop experienced with the original design. The steering set is a direct fit and it will hit stores very soon. Also new is a titanium turnbuckle set that not only reduces weight while adding strength, the included low-profile open end ball cups also avoid hitting the wheel while allowing to remove the ball ends through unscrewing rather than popping off the ball which will help with durability of the suspension parts.
