This is an RC-scale black-aluminum front upright designed for Tamiya Hotshot, Bigwig, and Boomerang chassis and includes a 5mm long ball connector. The metal piece interfaces with the vehicle's front steering and suspension linkages as a direct alternative to plastic knuckles.
Opt for this upright when you want increased durability at the steering knuckle and a firmer connection for hard use. The provided 5mm long ball connector is made to suit linkage setups that use a 5mm ball end; double-check your ball spacing and mounting geometry before fitting.
Fitting notes: the upright installs into the front hub carrier and connects to the steering linkage via the long ball connector. Basic hobby tools and careful alignment are normally adequate. After installation, confirm steering travel and suspension movement to prevent binding. This description is intended for RC-scale model applications only.
