Tuned handling for the TRF front axle

The Tamiya 54701 Aluminum Suspension Mount 05E refines front-end behaviour on TRF series cars. Dropping the roll center by 0.5mm helps the car resist sudden weight transfer and produce steadier lines through bends.

Which Tamiya chassis accept this mount?

Ideal for multiple Tamiya rigs, the mount works with TA07 PRO, TA06 versions, TB-04 family, FF-04 EVO, FF-03 line and the TRF419/TRF419X. That makes it handy for drivers swapping parts between platform types.

Durability and finish

Built from precision aluminum with a blue anodised surface, the 05E mount balances toughness and looks. The finish helps avoid corrosion and stands up to regular track use.

No specialised tools are required. A basic set of hex drivers and a screwdriver will handle the swap using existing mounting hardware.
Lowering the roll centre by 0.5mm tends to stabilise the front on medium to high grip surfaces. You may notice different behaviour on loose or low grip layouts and should adjust damping accordingly.
Yes, the 54701 mount is appropriate for club racing and practice. It offers a subtle tuning change that experienced drivers use to refine handling without drastic chassis modification.
The mount typically uses your car's existing screws and brackets. Check the parts list for any additional small hardware requirements before installation.
