Alloy Rear Hubs Built for Repeated Use

The Tamiya 53288 Aluminum Rear Upright is manufactured for the TA03 chassis to provide a tougher alternative to stock plastic uprights. These alloy hubs reduce flex and deliver a firmer connection between suspension and wheel, ideal for drivers looking to lock in consistent corner exits.

Stiffness That Helps Corner Precision

Forged from robust aluminum, the Tamiya 53288 uprights resist deformation and maintain geometry under racing stresses. The result is sharper turn-in and steadier midcorner behaviour without adding unnecessary mass to the rear end.

Simple Swap for TA03 Builds

Designed specifically for TA03 layout, the Tamiya 53288 fits directly into the existing suspension assembly. The straightforward swap keeps setup time low while delivering improved durability for frequent running.

These uprights are tailored to the TA03 geometry. Fitting them to different TA series models may require modification to match mounting points and steering link geometry.
Typically you transfer bearings and pins from the original uprights into the new Tamiya 53288 pair. The product is normally supplied as bare uprights without bearings included.
The uprights maintain the same mounting points, so toe changes should be minimal. Always recheck toe after installation and make small adjustments as needed for optimal tyre wear and handling.
Inspect for burrs or flat spots after hard impacts and clean mating surfaces before reassembly. A light application of anti-seize or threadlocker on screws can help during wet or salty conditions.
