Durable Front Hub for Everyday Use

The JAZRIDER aluminium front C-hub in blue is a practical upgrade aimed at hobbyists who want longer service life from their Tamiya buggies. It fits Thunder shot, Thunder Dragon, Fire Dragon and Terra Scorcher models and reduces the risk of breakage during routine driving and light bashing.

Material and Practical Benefits

Constructed from aluminium, the unit resists common failure modes seen with plastic hubs, such as cracking and deformation. The improved material also helps maintain consistent steering geometry under load, which benefits handling predictability.

Fitting Notes for Hobbyists

Installation uses common tools and is suitable for most home workshop environments. When fitting, check pivot points and retaining hardware, and replace any worn pins or bearings to get the best service life from the new hub.

Which Tamiya models does this cover?

This JAZRIDER part is designed to suit the Thunder shot, Thunder Dragon, Fire Dragon and Terra Scorcher model range without major modification.

Are any parts recommended to replace at the same time?

While not required, it is sensible to inspect and, if necessary, replace steering pins and wheel bearings during the hub swap to ensure optimal alignment and longevity.

Will this reduce the need for future repairs?

In general, aluminium hubs are more resistant to impact damage, so they can lower the frequency of front end repairs compared to plastic components under similar use.
