A5 front support for TAMIYA buggies

This gun metal aluminum front suspension arm mount and gearbox support is catalogued as JR-TFD08-GU and serves as an RC-scale replacement for the A5 bracket fitted on certain TAMIYA chassis. Its machined surfaces provide a consistent datum for arm pivots.

It is compatible with TAMIYA Thunder Shot, Thunder Dragon, Fire Dragon, and Terra Scorcher models where the A5 location is used. The part adds rigidity to the front assembly and secures the gearbox mounting area for reliable setup checks.

Fitting is straightforward: locate the A5 mounting point on the chassis, position the mount and fasten with the original hardware where possible. Verify that steering linkages and shock towers clear the new mount and that pivot alignment is maintained before final torque.

Tuning role: swapping to this mount helps maintain repeatable pivot geometry while you work on toe, caster, and ride height adjustments on the compatible TAMIYA models.

Great selection of parts available, super fast delivery to here in the UK in less than 5 days! Highly recommended.
Yes, when your chassis uses the A5 front mount location, this component is designed to match that layout on Thunder Shot, Thunder Dragon, Fire Dragon, and Terra Scorcher.
Normally the mount accepts the chassis' existing screws; however, check for thread engagement and replace any worn hardware if needed for a secure fit.
By providing a stable A5 datum, the mount helps keep suspension pivots consistent, aiding accurate toe and caster adjustments and repeatable shock travel measurements.
