This aluminium rear hub carrier is a direct-fit replacement for the TAMIYA XV-01 chassis, supplied as model XV01-13404-LB in light blue. It provides a metal mounting point for the rear hub assembly while preserving the chassis suspension geometry found on the stock unit.
Performance note: switching from the plastic carrier to an aluminium unit reduces flex and helps maintain consistent rear toe and camber settings, assisting drivers who require repeatable setup adjustments during practice and competition.
Fitting advice: remove the rear wheel and remove the carrier fasteners, transfer any bearings or inserts to the new carrier if needed, and refit using the original screws. Confirm hub alignment and rotational freedom before running, and torque fasteners carefully to avoid stripping threads.
