Practical aluminium dog bone upgrade for TT-02 owners

The JAZRIDER TT02-13105-LB offers a rugged, low mass solution to common plastic dog bone failures on the Tamiya TT-02. Manufactured to tight dimensions, this aluminium component reduces breakage risk and simplifies routine checks thanks to its contrasting light blue finish. It is intended for hobbyists seeking reliable everyday performance rather than extreme weight savings.

Material and fitment notes for hobby technicians

Aluminium delivers consistent geometry under load and resists distortion that can occur with plastic counterparts. Verify shaft seating and ensure set screws are tightened to spec during installation. Because the part is stiffer, inspect adjacent components like dog bone cups and diff outputs for compatibility and wear.

Service and inspection guidance

After initial installation, perform a short run and recheck for axial play or binding. Regular cleaning to remove grit and light lubrication where appropriate will extend service life. When replacing mixed-material components, consider upgrading mating parts to match stiffness for even wear.

What tolerances should I check when fitting this dog bone?

Confirm seating depth, shaft diameter fit, and set screw engagement. Check for end float and lateral play to ensure the dog bone runs true in the cup.

Is there any break-in required for the aluminium part?

A brief running period followed by a recheck of fasteners and clearances is recommended. No special break-in is needed, but initial inspection catches seating shifts.

Should I match materials across the driveline?

Matching stiffness where possible reduces uneven wear. If you replace only the dog bone, monitor adjacent parts and upgrade them if wear appears sooner than expected.
