Default ax10 Deadbolt steering upgrade

Can anyone recommend at steering upgrade for the Deadbolt.
Will Wraith part fit the Deadbolt?

Change the servo, servo horn, knuckles, c hubs, and axles. You will like the difference it makes trust me. And whatever you do don't put a metal steering link on it. The plastic allows for a little more flex and wont break your servos as easily when u bash the front end into something.

I respectfully disagree about not putting metal steering links on. If you're going to run a better servo you'll want metal links. I changed my servo to a Hi-Tec 645mg, and had no steering control because the plastic links kept bending when trying to steer.

Axial products are as good. But vanquish is better.

And that's a good point... But have you tried upgrading the steering stabilizer arm only?
