Machined aluminium lower-arm bracket

This machined aluminium front lower arm mount plate is produced for the Tamiya Hornet EVO (58742). The JR-THNE07-LB replaces the plastic mounting point with a precision metal component to reduce movement at the pivot and improve suspension consistency.

Finished in light blue, the item is suited as a spare or hop-up part for model care and tuning. It is supplied for use on models only and not intended for any road vehicle application.

Installation notes: attach the plate to the existing front bulkhead using the factory mounting pattern; check hole alignment and reuse original fasteners when appropriate. Remove any burrs from mating surfaces, verify full-travel clearance for the arm, and preserve pin and screw orientation during reassembly to maintain correct geometry.

Tuning considerations: fitting the aluminium plate lowers compliance at the lower arm pivot, which can reduce chassis flex and modify steering feel and roll tendencies. Incorporate this change into a broader setup plan with spring and damper adjustments to dial in handling.

The plated finish offers basic surface protection; if you run in wet or salty conditions, consider additional corrosion prevention and regular inspection of fasteners and contact areas.
Aluminium is more wear resistant than some plastics used for stock mounts, so it typically offers improved longevity, but longevity also depends on track conditions and maintenance.
Check mounting torque after the first few runs, inspect for loosening, and periodically verify clearance and screw condition to keep the installation secure.
