Lightweight Upgrades for Touring Car Drives

The Tamiya 42321 Lightweight Cross Joints are a straightforward way to trim rotating mass on your touring car. Built from aluminium, they replace heavier steel counterparts while keeping durability suited to club racing and practice sessions.

Key Points for Tamiya 42321

Material: Precision aluminium construction to cut driveline weight.
Finish: Hard gold anodize for added surface protection and a neat finish.
Weight: Around 0.5g per piece, giving close to a 1g saving compared with steel originals.
Compatibility: Compatible with touring car assemblies that use parts 51445 and 54623.

How do I check compatibility with my chassis?

Compare the part numbers on your existing joints to parts 51445 and 54623. If your chassis uses those parts, the 42321 units will be a direct replacement.

Are these joints durable for regular track use?

The aluminium construction with hard anodize is robust for normal racing and practice. Avoid excessive impacts and inspect periodically for wear.

Will the gold finish affect performance?

The anodized coating mainly adds corrosion resistance and aesthetics; it does not negatively affect fit or driveline function when installed correctly.

Can I reuse balls and pins from the steel parts?

In many cases you can reuse the original small hardware, but inspect pins and balls for wear and replace if there is any damage to ensure smooth operation.
