Whenever there is a crash, one of the often damaged area of the car is the steering component. All of the force from an impact is usually transferred to the center of the chassis, which is where the steering rack is located. Use a set of aluminum steering assembly over the stock plastic steering assembly can withstand the impact your Latrax Rally might encounter, giving it extra durability and strength to protect the chassis.
