Overview of rear top link

Designed as a spring steel aftermarket link, this rear upper tie rod fits the Tamiya Wild Willy 2 WR-02 chassis and is supplied as a pair labelled WW2057S. It functions as an RC-scale link that mounts at the rear upper connection between hub or knuckle assemblies and the WR-02 link points.

Fit and function: intended to replace aged or factory plastic links, the steel rod restores suspension geometry and provides a firmer rear link that reduces flex. This direct-replacement piece is suited to the WR-02 rear upper position and helps keep wheel alignment under load or when running heavier equipment.

Installation notes: remove the old rear upper rod and swap over ball ends or linkage fittings. The WR-02's original fasteners and pins should be reused; check that threads engage correctly and that ball studs are tightened to a secure but free-moving point.

Care and tuning role: spring steel resists permanent bend more effectively than typical plastic links, offering a more predictable rear end for drivers tuning for sharper response. Inspect ball ends periodically and ensure pivot points are clean and lightly lubricated to extend service life.

Yes, the WW2057S link is manufactured to fit the stock WR-02 rear upper mounting points and uses the same ball end spacing.
You may want to recheck toe and camber settings and test with the same springs; stiffer links can alter handling feel, so small adjustments may be beneficial.
Monitor ball cup wear and keep pivot areas free of grit; a light application of suitable lubricant will reduce accelerated wear.
