Fit the Tamiya 53258 Link-Type Front Suspension

The Tamiya 53258 Link-Type Suspension Kit upgrades the front end of compatible Tamiya F1 models to give a steadier feel through corners. It is aimed at hobbyists who want consistent steering and easier setup adjustments.

Why Hobbyists Use This Link Setup

Rugged Construction: Molded from black plastic for reliable strength while keeping weight low.
Accurate Pivot Hardware: Comes with two 7mm and two 8mm pivot balls to maintain consistent movement and alignment.
All Necessary Fasteners: Delivered with hinge pins, E-clips, C-rings, flathead screws, and nuts so you can mount it without sourcing extras.

How do I confirm compatibility with my F1 kit?

Compare the suspension mounting points and clearances on your chassis with the Tamiya 53258 components; if mount spacing and servo link geometry match, the kit should fit correctly.

Can I use aftermarket pivot balls?

Yes, you can fit upgraded pivot balls if they match the 7mm and 8mm sizes supplied, but confirm thread and seating dimensions before swapping parts.

Is any trimming required for installation?

Most installs are straightforward, though some chassis may need minor trimming or adjustment for perfect clearance. Trial fit parts before final tightening.

How often should I inspect the linkage?

Inspect pivot balls, E-clips, and screws regularly after track sessions to catch wear or loosening early and keep handling consistent.
