Upgraded front damper plate for TT01

This alloy front damper plate is an aftermarket component made for the Tamiya TT01 chassis, consolidating the front damper top mounts and a gearbox mounting interface into a single metal part. It is intended as a structural replacement to improve serviceability while retaining TT01 mounting locations.

The plate is constructed from alloy to provide strength where the damper tops and gearbox meet. Hardware to secure the plate and position the gearbox is included, allowing hobbyists to swap out the stock plastic plate for a metal alternative during routine servicing or setup changes.

Installation notes: the part fits using the TT01 front bulkhead and existing suspension mounting points, so some front-end disassembly is required. Confirm gear mesh and screw engagement when installing the gearbox to avoid binding. Standard RC tools like hex driver sets are normally sufficient.

Specifications

  • Item: Front damper plate with gear box and screws
  • Material: Alloy
  • Model Number: TT028
  • Compatibility: Tamiya TT01

Use this plate if you want a metal replacement for the TT01 front damper mount or when simplifying gearbox installation during a front rebuild; always verify mesh and alignment after fitting.

No modification should be required on standard TT01 bulkheads that use the original mounting pattern, but check hole alignment before final tightening.
The plate is supplied as an alloy part; finish and surface treatment may vary by batch. Inspect the part for burrs or sharp edges and deburr gently if needed before installation.
You can reuse correct-length original screws if they match the supplied hardware. The kit includes screws intended for securing this plate to ensure proper fitment.
Switching to a metal plate increases rigidity at the front end, which can slightly change feedback. Rebuild the front, check damper preload and alignment, then test drive to confirm handling.
