Jazrider JR-XV100-BK Product Summary

This aluminium front knuckle arm kit is designed for the TAMIYA XV-01 chassis and carries the JR-XV100-BK part code. The alloy knuckles replace plastic originals to provide a firmer mounting point for the steering hub on scale and club-run models.

The black anodized finish offers added surface protection and the parts are made to mate with the existing XV-01 steering assembly and suspension pick-up points. Installation typically requires removing the stock knuckles and moving bearings and fasteners from the original parts before fitting the aluminium units, then verifying steering alignment and travel.

Aluminium knuckles alter load paths in the front suspension, which can reduce hub flex and make steering response feel firmer. After installing metal hop-ups, check camber, toe and full-lock movement to avoid binding and limit excess wear on steering components.

Is JR-XV100-BK a direct replacement for the stock knuckles?

Yes, the kit is intended as a direct replacement for the XV-01 front knuckles, using the same steering and suspension pick-up locations.

What benefits should I expect from the metal knuckles?

Expect reduced hub flex, improved steering feedback and greater wear resistance compared with stock plastic parts, though you should monitor related components for added loading.

Any post-fit checks recommended?

Check steering geometry, confirm smooth hub rotation and inspect for binding at full lock; re-tighten hardware after an initial test run.
