Stiffen Up TC-01 Steering with Aluminium Arms

For drivers wanting a more direct front end, the Tamiya 54958 aluminium steering arms replace the stock plastic components on a TC-01 chassis. These precision machined parts reduce unwanted flex and give a more consistent steering feel.

Why Fit Aluminium?

Aluminium steering arms resist deformation better than plastic, so you get sharper steering inputs and a more predictable response when pushing the car. They are a sensible upgrade for regular racers and weekend shredders who demand repeatable handling.

Specifications at a Glance

  • Material: Machined aluminium for enhanced durability
  • Finish: Blue anodised Tamiya finish for corrosion resistance
  • Compatibility: Specifically engineered for TC-01 models
  • Installation: Replaces original plastic T4 and T7 parts

Assembly Advice

Pairing these arms with the aluminium steering bridge (54957) will reduce flex across the front end. Remember bearings are not included; fit 850 (8x5mm) ball bearings to ensure smooth operation.

Most stock screws and pins will work, but inspect for wear and replace any rounded or stripped fasteners to avoid issues.
The blue anodising gives decent surface protection but chips can occur on heavy impact. Check parts after crashes and touch up or replace if needed.
A light, dry lubricant on the bearing contact areas helps reduce friction without attracting dirt. Avoid heavy greases that trap grit.
