Which Models Work with This Set

This accessory is compatible with several Tamiya builds, including M01 and M02 chassis cars and the 58231 Wild Dagger, making it a versatile spare parts choice.

Can I use these on a drift car setup?

Yes, the connectors and bushings can be used on drift builds where the ball size and screw threads match your existing linkages. Check fitment before final assembly.

Are the gold screws compatible with carbon or alloy parts?

The gold 3.5x15mm screws are standard Tamiya hardware and fasten well into plastic and some metal mounts; use appropriate thread engagement and avoid over-tightening.

Do the flanged tubes reduce linkage play?

Flanged tubes help keep connectors seated and can reduce unwanted movement when installed correctly, improving steering feel.

Is any special tool needed to fit these parts?

Basic hobby tools like a small driver set and pliers are sufficient; a bench vise is not required for normal installation.
