These machined aluminum front upper suspension link arms are an aftermarket upgrade for the Tamiya CC-02 chassis, created to replace more flexible plastic links with a stiffer aluminum option. The parts are intended to improve steering precision and maintain suspension geometry under varied off-road conditions.
Before you fit these links, inspect the mounting pins and ball studs for wear, follow factory torque specs on fasteners, and recheck wheel alignment after installation. The component functions as a tuning item to enhance front-end consistency on scale and trail setups.
Installation sequence: remove front hubs and A-arms in order, unbolt the original upper link, transfer any spacers or bearings, install the aluminium replacement with correct orientation, then reassemble and confirm full suspension travel and steering clearance.
