This JR-TBB01-BK is an RC-scale aluminium front knuckle arm produced by JAZRIDER for the TAMIYA BB-01 (BBX) chassis. It is supplied as a metal replacement for the stock plastic knuckle to increase rigidity at the steering pivot.
Material and role: the knuckle is made from aluminium to provide better wear resistance than standard plastic parts, acting as the front wheel steering knuckle that connects suspension and steering linkages on the BB-01 (BBX) layout. It aids tuning efforts that prioritise steering precision and consistent geometry under load.
Installation and fit: manufactured to the BB-01 (BBX) mounting pattern, the knuckle is designed to replace the original front knuckle without chassis modification. Use the existing mounting hardware where applicable and verify alignment and steering range after installation to avoid binding.
Maintenance and tuning tips: check bearing seating and keep pivot points clear of grit, inspect fasteners regularly, and consider using matched hardware to keep steering feel predictable when altering setups.
