Tighter handling for the XV-01 using Tamiya 54376 aluminium mounts

For drivers aiming to reduce chassis flex, the Tamiya 54376 RC XV-01 Separate Suspension Mounts (1XJ) replace standard plastic mounts with aluminium components. The upgrade increases structural stiffness and helps the suspension move more consistently over rough surfaces.

Why aluminium helps control the XV-01

Moving from plastic to aluminium reduces unwanted chassis movement and gives a firmer, more predictable feel on corners. Improved rigidity helps the vehicle respond more accurately to steering inputs and keeps suspension action steadier during demanding runs.

Compatibility and simple fitting

These aluminium mounts are specifically made for the XV-01 platform and are intended to fit in place of the original plastic parts. Fitting is straightforward for most hobbyists and typically requires only common tools without modifying the chassis.

In most cases the original hardware can be reused. Inspect screws for wear and replace any that are stripped. Supplied hardware will fit if the set includes it.
They make the chassis stiffer, which can change how the car absorbs big hits. Tune shocks and springs if needed to retain desired damping and landing behaviour.
Some aluminium parts can be anodised or lightly machined, but any modification should preserve dimensions and thread fits. Avoid removing material that would weaken the mount.
