Tamiya 9805385 Rubber Bushing for Reliable Suspension

The Tamiya 9805385 rubber bushing is supplied as a direct spare for models 58178 and 176. Its accurate dimensions and robust rubber mix help preserve suspension geometry and reduce unwanted movement. Ideal for hobbyists who value consistent handling and low maintenance.

Technical Highlights of the Bushing

Composition: Tough rubber formulation provides consistent energy absorption over many runs.
Fitment: Made to suit Tamiya 58178/176 suspension points for a snug installation.
Role: Minimises lateral play and improves predictable steering feel around corners.

Can I use this bushing on vintage Tamiya models?

It may work on older kits if their suspension dimensions match 58178/176. Measure the bore and outer diameter before fitting to be safe.

Does the rubber affect damping characteristics?

Yes. The rubber helps absorb shocks before they reach the shocks themselves, softening high-frequency impacts and aiding tyre contact.

Is any special tool needed to fit this part?

Usually no special tools are required; a vice or a padded press can help seat the bushing evenly without damaging it.
