Aftermarket front C-hub for TAMIYA

This aluminium front C-hub is produced as a direct-fit aftermarket option for the TAMIYA Thunder Shot family listed in the product title. It preserves OEM mounting points while swapping plastic for aluminium and a gun metal finish to alter steering load response.

Fit and compatibility: the part is listed for Thunder Shot, Thunder Dragon, Fire Dragon and Terra Scorcher variants—verify mounting alignment with your chassis before final assembly. Retain original hardware where it fits to keep suspension geometry and track width correct.

Installation and tuning: the C-hub determines the front spindle position and influences toe and camber under braking and cornering; installing a stiffer aluminium hub typically results in a firmer steering feel. After fitting, recheck wheel alignment and kingpin/caster settings then perform controlled runs to confirm handling changes.

Yes, it is designed to match the stock mounting pattern for the models named; check hole spacing against your chassis and reuse compatible original fasteners for correct fitment.
Aluminium reduces flex seen with plastic parts, giving a more immediate steering reaction and potentially changing toe/camber responses under load. Tweak alignment and suspension settings progressively to reach preferred handling.
The component is manufactured from aluminium and finished in gun metal, as stated in the product information, chosen for increased rigidity and a subtle aesthetic.
