Fits perfect, adjusted the toe on my basher. Comes with loc-tite, feels great to fine tune the steering on my upgraded car. Makes driving straight and taking jumps a breeze.

Excellent, very nice looking. I'm not sure what people are talking about the Steering is nice and tight if you know how to use Thread Lock and let it Cure properly. I already had the Shock upgrade and those are also really nice I need to put the brushless system back in now that the Steering is tight and Shocks are refilled

Everything went together well during install, looks really nice when installed on the car, car took some hard hits and bent one of the tie rod ends at the pivot point. The plastic stock steering definitely took the same hits against my wall and never broke or fatigued. I noticed that all of the pivoting points are getting even looser meaning they are wearing out pretty quick. No matter how much I try to readjust the toe there is nothing I can do to tighten up the steering without purchasing new joints. Will probably just keep running this setup until something breaks, and just reinstall the tie rod ends. :edit The steering was getting worse, I reinstalled the stock tie rod ends and the steering is much better. I would buy this kit again and install everything except the tie rod ends to have the nice looking knuckles.

Besides missing several components and an empty tube of threadlocker (no biggy as I don't use anything but quality loctite) this kit is severally lacking in tolerances. First off properly using loctite has NOTHING to do with the theory of operation in how this upgrade works . Overall the kit itself is certainly nice, only for eye appeal and nothing else. When it comes to function tolerances everywhere are horid. Bearings in a hub should not be loose or have lateral movement. When you can physically watch the bearings move in all directions, no go. The amount of unnecessary and abnormal movement of the steel bearings will keyhole the soft aluminum VERY quickly under power. Then we come to the ball links in the steering components of the kit. Same issue of very sloppy tolerance between the ball and joints. No amount of trim adjustment will keep the wheels planted were they need to be. Absolutely stay away from this kit for any HBX rig. I'm very impressed with HBX overall but this kit is truly a disappointment and should be discontinued. The stock components of the HBX 18859A are so much better and should be used appropriately.
