This RC-scale front upright set is machined from aluminum and finished with red anodize, offered as a direct-fit replacement for compatible Tamiya WR02, DT03T and Blitzer Beetle front uprights. These pieces are identified by model JR-WR201-RD and serve as a metal option to plastic components, providing stable mounting points for steering and suspension attachments without implying specific performance gains.
Fitting is generally simple on chassis that share the same upright footprint: remove the factory upright, transfer bearings and wheel hexes, and secure the new uprights with the existing fasteners where practical. After installation, inspect steering linkage alignment and wheel bearing seating before running the model.
From a setup perspective, metal uprights maintain geometry under repeated stress and make tuning changes repeatable, which helps during camber, caster, and track width adjustments on the test bench. They work with common servo and suspension arrangements used on the listed Tamiya frames and do not require special tools beyond basic maintenance gear.
