Practical aluminium uprights for daily RC use

The JAZRIDER JR-THS01-GU front upright is a straightforward, durable replacement for Tamiya Hotshot, Bigwig and Boomerang models. Machined aluminium provides increased resistance to wear in the steering knuckle area while the gun metal finish offers a neat appearance suited to everyday hobby use.

Functional features for hobbyists

  • Aluminium construction: Durable alloy reduces the chance of cracking during ordinary runs and extends service intervals.
  • 5mm long ball connector: Provides improved link engagement and reduces steering play for a more predictable response.
  • Neutral styling: Gun metal finish blends with a wide range of builds without drawing attention.

Fitment and routine checks

These uprights are made to fit the Hotshot, Bigwig and Boomerang chassis. Install with standard hex drivers, check ball joint tightness and inspect mounting points after a few use cycles to maintain consistent steering performance.

Are these uprights a direct swap for the stock parts?

Yes, they are intended as direct replacements for the stock uprights on the listed models. Confirm fit on modified vehicles before final installation.

What routine maintenance do you recommend?

Keep pivots clean, inspect ball connectors and thread locking on screws, and recheck alignment after initial runs to prevent premature wear.

Can I use different ball connector lengths with these uprights?

Yes. The uprights accept standard ball connector sizes; swapping lengths lets you fine tune steering geometry to suit handling preferences.
