Video: How To – Installing Tamiya’s Aluminum Steering Set into your TA08 Pro | CompetitionX

Tamiya’s TA08 Pro is a surprisingly good TC right out of the box. However, as with most racers, we like to upgrade parts on it for 2 reasons: 1) We like the function of aftermarket parts and, 2) we like the bling of aftermarket parts.

The TA08 Pro borrows the steering from the TA07 Pro and, in this video, we show you how to replace the stock TA08 plastic pieces with the TA07 aluminum parts. Super easy install that will allow a more precise steering feel as well as give you optional Ackermann adjustments.

Enjoy the video.
