Steering Block & C-Hub - Aluminum Set
Maximizes steering precision under carpet's high cornering loads.
Performance upgrade parts for the XB4, with notes on why each one is worth running and under which track conditions it helps most.
The upgrades that matter most once cornering loads and traction levels are at their highest.

Maximizes steering precision under carpet's high cornering loads.

Adds rear-end stability, suited to high-traction conditions.

Precise oil/bleed control for sensitive high-speed damping.

A freer-moving drivetrain and smoother suspension movement, with reduced maintenance.

More corner speed and stability with a lower center of gravity and less traction roll.

More steering tuning possibilities.
Medium-high, fast-cornering traction that rewards a smoother, more tunable feel.

Precise oil/bleed control for sensitive high-speed damping.

A freer-moving drivetrain and smoother suspension movement, with reduced maintenance.

More corner speed and stability with a lower center of gravity and less traction roll.

More steering tuning possibilities.

More traction and better bump absorption — must be used together with 364026, 365436, 941015 and 361177.

More rear downforce and rear traction.

Better bump absorption, more high-speed stability and more mid-corner steering.
Low, bumpy traction where compliance and mechanical traction matter most.

A shorter effective wheelbase that generates more rear traction.

A lower roll center for more rear traction; aluminum construction adds stability.

More rear downforce and rear traction.

Precise oil/bleed control for sensitive high-speed damping.

More steering tuning possibilities.

Better bump absorption, more high-speed stability and more mid-corner steering.
