Stiffen Your TGX Rear End with Tamiya 53290

The Tamiya 53290 TGX Hard Aluminum Rear Suspension Arm adds a stiffer mounting point to TGX models, helping to preserve setup settings under heavy driving. It is aimed at users who want reduced rear end flex and a steadier feel.

Durable Construction for Road and Track

Precision machined from hard aluminum, this arm resists deformation and keeps suspension geometry consistent. The accurate fitment with TGX chassis parts helps maintain reliable handling during repeated runs.

Why Fit the Tamiya 53290 Arm?

Material: Hard Aluminum to withstand repeated loads
Compatibility: Specifically matched to Tamiya TGX models
Performance: Promotes cleaner handling and reduces wear on pivot points

Does this replace the standard plastic arm directly?

Yes, it is intended as a direct replacement for the TGX plastic rear arm, using the same mounting positions and hardware in most builds.

Will aluminium cause extra wear on pins?

Metal-on-metal contact can accelerate wear if bushings are worn. Keep pivot pins and bearings serviced to avoid premature damage.

Is this suitable for club racing?

Yes, its added rigidity and repeatable geometry make it a sensible upgrade for consistent lap times and reduced component failures during regular competition.

How do I protect the finish from corrosion?

Wipe the arm clean after wet runs and apply light corrosion inhibitor where appropriate. Avoid abrasive cleaners that could damage anodised surfaces.

Can I reuse existing screws and nuts?

Often you can reuse hardware, but inspect for thread wear and replace any damaged bolts to ensure a secure fit.
