Reinforce TamTech-Gear Steering and Suspension with Tamiya Alloy Balls

The Tamiya GT-01 4mmx3h Aluminum Ball Connector Set gives TamTech-Gear builders a reliable metal option to replace fragile plastic connectors. These alloy balls help maintain precise geometry when you tackle grass, gravel or tighter club tracks.

Why Choose Alloy Over Plastic Ball Connectors

Alloy ball connectors stand up better to impact and repeated loading, cutting down on play that develops in plastic parts. That increased durability keeps your steering and suspension tracking true during aggressive driving.

Compatibility Tips and Quick Swap Guide

Engineered for the GT-01 chassis, these connectors suit TamTech-Gear cars using the same ball seat dimensions. Swapping them in takes only basic tools and a few minutes, perfect for quick trackside upgrades.

Can I use them on other Tamiya chassis?

They will work on other TamTech-Gear models that share the GT-01 ball dimensions, but confirm seat size before fitting.

Do alloy connectors affect steering feel?

Yes, alloy connectors typically give a firmer, more direct response compared to flexible plastic balls, which some drivers prefer for precision.

Are these corrosion resistant?

Aluminum resists corrosion better than raw steel, but rinse and dry parts after exposure to salt or mud to extend life.

What tools do I need to fit them?

Basic hex keys and pliers are usually enough; no special workshop gear is required for the swap.
