It pivots on the king pins inside the C-hub and holds the wheel axle and bearings, so it carries the steering angle, the cornering load, and the weight of the front of the vehicle all at once.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eThat combination makes it one of the most heavily stressed suspension components. Every kerb strike, rock impact, and awkward landing on a turned wheel loads the block in a direction it was not designed to resist. Cracks typically appear around the king pin bores or the axle housing, and once a block is cracked the wheel no longer sits at a consistent angle. The result is steering that pulls to one side, uneven tire wear, and accelerated bearing failure as the axle runs out of true.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eSteering blocks are a standard spare to keep on hand for exactly this reason. This is a direct factory replacement that installs in the stock location with no modification, working with the standard king pins, bearings, and axles.\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"ARRMA","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":55775539986754,"sku":"ARAC9356","price":5.99,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":false}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0819\/5063\/8402\/files\/ARAC9356_A0_ZGSFDE75.jpg?v=1785969353","url":"https:\/\/www.powerhobby.com\/products\/arrma-arac9356-steering-block-4x4-blx-4s","provider":"PowerHobby","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
