Solid aluminium uprights for cleaner steering

For Kiwi hobbyists wanting a tougher front end on a Tamiya Hotshot, Bigwig or Boomerang, the JAZRIDER JR-THS01-GU aluminium upright offers a straightforward upgrade. Its gun metal coating looks tidy and helps guard against everyday wear.

Why pick this aluminium front upright

Built to last: Aluminium construction stands up to regular running and knocks better than standard plastic uprights.
Tighter steering: The 5mm long ball connector reduces slop and gives more accurate steering feel on both flat tracks and rough surfaces.
Neat appearance: The gun metal finish provides a low key, modern look that suits many Tamiya builds.

Compatibility notes and fitting

This upright is made for Hotshot, Bigwig and Boomerang models and installs without major changes. It is a practical bolt-on upgrade for most hobbyists using standard tools.

Can I use this on other vintage Tamiya kits?

Fit depends on the upright mounting and ball stud spacing. It will match models that share the same upright geometry but check measurements to be sure.

Is the 5mm long ball connector adjustable?

The 5mm long ball connector provides extra reach and a firmer link. You can swap ball lengths if you need different steering geometry.

Will this change my steering trim?

Swapping to alloy uprights may change endplay slightly. Re-check servo linkages and toe settings after fitting to restore neutral steering.
