Tune your XV-02 steering with aluminium arms

The Tamiya 22072 XV-02 benefits from the OP-2072 aluminium steering arms when you want firmer, more predictable steering. These precision parts are engineered to sit securely on the XV-02 chassis while trimming flex and improving overall steering feedback for both practice and club racing.

Why choose these aluminium steering arms

Strong but light: Aluminium construction keeps weight down while offering a tougher alternative to plastic arms.
Sharper steering response: The accurate fit delivers clearer steering feel and quicker reaction to input.
Blue anodised protection: The coating guards against corrosion and keeps parts looking tidy after repeated use.
Ball bearing support: Integrated bearings reduce side play and help steering move smoothly.
XV-02 compatibility: Specifically made to match the XV-02 mounting points and link lengths.

Can I use these on off-road surfaces?

Yes. The OP-2072 arms are robust enough for light off-road use, improving steering precision on rougher surfaces compared with stock plastic arms.

Are the ball bearings replaceable?

The bearings are integrated into the arms. If a bearing wears, you can replace it, but it may require disassembly and a compatible replacement bearing size.

Will the blue anodise fade outdoors?

Proper care prevents premature fading. Rinse off salt or heavy grime and avoid prolonged UV exposure when storing the car outdoors.

Do these require model-specific trimming?

No trimming should be needed for XV-02 fitment. They are machined to match standard XV-02 link geometry and mounting points.
