Aluminium A5 arm mount for TAMIYA models

The JR-TFD08-RD item is an aluminium front suspension arm mount and gearbox support intended for 1/10-scale TAMIYA Thunder Shot, Thunder Dragon, Fire Dragon and Terra Scorcher buggies. It replaces the A5 plastic mount with a metal alternative to increase front-end stiffness and add reinforcement around the gearbox area while keeping the stock configuration.

Use case and fitting: this part installs into the factory A5 front bulkhead mounting points and links to the suspension arm pivot, maintaining original geometry. It is intended as a direct accessory for maintenance, tuning and to replace worn plastic parts without modifying the chassis or drivetrain.

Tuning notes: fitting an aluminium mount will alter front-end feedback and may change understeer/oversteer balance in combination with shock valving or sway bar changes. Inspect screws and mating faces during installation to ensure correct alignment and unobstructed suspension travel.

Compatibility

  • Thunder Shot
  • Thunder Dragon
  • Fire Dragon
  • Terra Scorcher

Is this a direct swap for the A5 front mount on the listed TAMIYA buggies?

Yes, it is designed to fit the A5 mounting points and replace the corresponding plastic part without requiring changes to the chassis layout.

Any special checks after installation?

After fitting, verify gear mesh, bearing alignment and fastener torque to ensure smooth drivetrain operation and unrestricted suspension movement.
