Technical 3.9mm ball end cap kit for competitive setups

This 14-piece 3.9mm ball end cap set provides exact-fit replacement sockets for steering and suspension linkages used on Team Losi Mini-T and Team Associated RC18T / RC18R. The kit is intended to restore consistent ball seating where worn caps have introduced play that affects geometry and handling repeatability.

Use these caps to pair with standard 3.9mm ball studs and common turnbuckle or rod-end hardware found on the listed platforms. Replace degraded caps during routine teardown or when refining steering and suspension alignment to retain predictable response under tuning iterations.

Installation procedure: remove the existing cap, verify ball stud diameter and original mounting method, then install the replacement by pressing or threading as required. After fitting, inspect steering sweep and suspension articulation, and re-tension surrounding linkages to factory or preferred setup settings.

In race preparation, consistent socket seating contributes to repeatable geometry. Renewing worn caps reduces variable free play so chassis behaviour is reliable between setup passes.

The kit includes 14 caps, sized for 3.9mm ball studs on steering and suspension linkages of Mini-T and RC18 platforms. Use them to replace worn sockets that cause play.
Yes, replacing inconsistent or damaged caps helps maintain repeatable joint seating, which aids precise steering and suspension adjustments during tuning.
Verify ball stud diameter and stud condition, ensure correct engagement of threaded caps if applicable, then validate free play and re-torque nearby fasteners after fitting.
