Wide Angle Front Assembly for DB01

The Tamiya 54118 front swing shaft is developed to keep power flowing through larger articulation angles on the DB01 chassis. Its broader movement range reduces driveline binding during aggressive cornering and rough tracks.

Parts Included and Fitment

The kit contains the following items:

  • WO Front Swing Shaft: 78mm x 2
  • WO Front Axle: x 2
  • Front Upright for 950 Ball Bearing: x 1
  • 950 Ball Bearings: x 2

Compatible with DB01, TRF501X and TRF501X WE chassis, this set replaces the original front uprights to improve driveline angles and reliability.

Assembly Advice

Press bearings evenly and check grub screw engagement without over tightening. After fitting, spin the assembly by hand to confirm smooth rotation and minimal play.

The kit is made for 950 ball bearings as supplied. Using a different size will require machining or a different upright, so stock bearings are recommended.
It can improve traction under heavy steering angles by reducing driveline binding, which often results in smoother delivery of power during corner exits.
Check and clean the bearings after every few race days or after running in wet or dusty conditions. Re-grease or replace bearings if you notice roughness.
