Precision aluminium front uprights for TAMIYA chassis

This green-anodised aluminium front upright set is a precision aftermarket replacement for the stock plastic uprights used on TAMIYA WR02, DT03T and Blitzer Beetle platforms identified in the title. The metal uprights are intended to limit spindle flex and provide a stiffer steering pivot for more consistent alignment under load.

Installation notes: the uprights replace the factory front knuckles and interface with existing steering links and wheel hubs on compatible TAMIYA WR02/DT03T/Blitzer Beetle configurations. Confirm thread form and fastener diameters before installation, apply progressive torque to mounting hardware to avoid misalignment, and verify free steering movement after fitment.

Tuning role: by reducing deflection at the steering spindle, these uprights help maintain static and dynamic toe and camber settings through aggressive cornering and uneven terrain. They are suited to hobbyists seeking a practical, durable upgrade that tightens steering feel and improves repeatable setup changes.

What checks should I do before fitting these uprights?

Verify that your hub spacing, ballstud positions and thread sizes match the uprights. Confirm there is no interference with existing bearings or hex adapters prior to final assembly.

Are there setup changes to expect after installation?

Reduced upright compliance typically tightens steering response; review toe and camber and make incremental adjustments while testing to re-establish desired handling balance.

How should I maintain aluminium uprights for long term use?

Regularly inspect mounting hardware and contact surfaces, clean threads, and check for signs of wear after impacts. Replace any damaged fasteners and re-torque as part of routine maintenance.
