Precision Steering Upgrade for the T3-01: Tamiya 54843

The Tamiya 54843 Aluminum Swing Shaft is an effective upgrade for T3-01 chassis owners looking to replace the stock MB11 unit. Its lightweight alloy design lowers unsprung mass and sharpens steering response, useful when dialing in handling characteristics.

Why This Swing Shaft Helps

Lower Mass: Aluminum material reduces weight at the front linkage for livelier handling.
Improved Steering Feel: More direct steering feedback assists on tight sections and technical tracks.
Complete Fitment Kit: Supplied with the necessary small parts so the swap can be completed without sourcing extras.

Fits These Models

This swing shaft is compatible with all T3-01 variants, including common builds like the Dancing Rider, making it useful across different tuning approaches.

Is the Tamiya 54843 easy to fit to a stock T3-01?

Yes, the part is designed for a direct replacement of the MB11 swing shaft and uses factory mounting points.

Should I change my steering setup after installation?

It is sensible to re-check toe and caster settings and make small trims to steering travel to suit the new feel.

Does the shaft need special maintenance?

Keep pivot points clean and periodically apply a light oil or silicone-safe grease to prevent wear and noise.

Will this help lap times on technical tracks?

Reducing rotating mass and improving steering precision can help consistency through complex sections, which may translate to better lap times when combined with setup tuning.
