Durable aluminium lower arm for CW-01

This aluminium front lower arm is intended to replace the stock plastic unit on Tamiya CW-01 based models including The Hornet and Grasshopper. The built-in spring mount locates the front spring in the standard position while maintaining RC-scale suspension geometry.

Manufactured from aluminium, the part offers repeatable mounting points versus moulded arms, improving alignment retention under load. It is produced to suit the CW-01 front layout so it can be fitted without changing bulkhead or shock tower positions on compatible kits.

When tuning, expect reduced lower-pivot flex and a more predictable platform for camber and caster adjustments. The arm complements stock shocks, axles, and wheel hubs to help hobbyists achieve steadier on-track handling.

Install this aluminium arm as a direct swap to preserve CW-01 front geometry while allowing measured suspension adjustments; always check part orientation and torque hardware correctly.

Aluminium offers greater resistance to flex and wear than molded plastic, providing more consistent mounting faces under repeated use, though it can transmit more shock loads to adjacent components.
Yes, the integrated spring mount accepts the standard front spring location used on CW-01 kits without needing different springs in most setups.
No trimming is normally required for CW-01 compatible chassis. Check hole alignment and confirm the hardware length before final assembly.
The stiffer arm reduces unwanted flex, which can make steering responses feel more direct; tune springs and dampers if you need to refine handling balance.
