Tamiya XV01 Rear Alloy Arm - XV056 precision upgrade by GPM  [XV056]

Rear alloy arm designed for the XV01

The XV056 alloy rear suspension arm is an aftermarket replacement crafted to suit the Tamiya XV01 platform. Supplied as a 1pr set, it replaces the original plastic arm to give a firmer mounting point for the rear linkage and damper layout while retaining the stock mounting footprint. The detail stays focused on fit, installation, and tuning effects rather than broad performance promises.

Fitting is straightforward for XV01 users: remove the original rear arm assembly, transfer bearings or pivot hardware where required, then secure the alloy arm with the original fasteners. After installation verify pivot alignment and suspension travel to prevent binding. Use medium-strength thread locker on metal fasteners if you plan frequent wet-weather runs.

In setup terms the alloy arm increases chassis stiffness compared with standard plastic pieces, which alters rear response and can influence traction and steering balance. When installing alloy arms consider complementary setup changes such as spring rates, ride height, and toe to fine tune handling to your preferences.

Recommended for hobbyists who want a metal rear arm for the XV01 to support more aggressive tuning and improved longevity.
