Fitting guide for aluminium front uprights on TAMIYA chassis

This aluminium front upright set is an RC-scale replacement part intended for use on TAMIYA WR02, DT03T and Blitzer Beetle chassis as indicated by the product name. Manufactured and finished in green, the uprights act as a direct replacement for standard plastic steering knuckles and provide higher stiffness to hold suspension geometry under load.

Installation notes: the kit replaces the front upright assemblies and secures to existing steering links and hub carriers on compatible TAMIYA WR02/DT03T/Blitzer Beetle layouts. During fitment, match screw threads and confirm spacers or shims are positioned correctly, tighten in stages and verify steering travel to avoid binding.

Tuning role: aluminium uprights reduce spindle flex so toe and camber settings stay more stable during aggressive driving. Drivers often pick aluminium uprights when chasing repeatable steering behavior for setup testing.

You will need matching hex drivers, a torque feeler, and thread cleaner. Confirm the screw lengths and thread type, fit uprights loosely first, then torque progressively while checking alignment.
Some chassis setups need thin shims to maintain correct wheel offset after switching materials. Inspect hub spacing and add or remove shims as needed to restore the intended track and steering geometry.
With wheels off the ground, sweep the steering full lock both ways and feel for resistance. Recheck fastener torque and spacer placement if there is any binding, then re-test under load once fitted to the chassis.
