Steering Precision Upgrade - Tamiya 54148

Fit the Tamiya 54148 blue anodised aluminium steering posts to sharpen front end control on a DB01 chassis. They are lighter than the standard steel posts and designed to withstand normal hobby use.

What Chassis Are Supported

The 54148 posts are compatible with TRF501X, TRF511 and DB01 chassis. Swapping in the alloy posts reduces weight by roughly 1.6g, which can help deliver crisper handling on smooth circuits.

How to Fit Them

Ensure all mounting faces are clean and dry before fitting to avoid binding. No specialist tools are needed, but take care to protect the anodised finish and confirm correct screw engagement.

Is this a worthwhile upgrade for tight technical tracks?

Yes, reducing front-end mass can improve turn-in and make the car feel more responsive on tighter, technical layouts.

Will servo effort change after fitting these posts?

A small reduction in front-end weight can slightly lower the load on the steering servo, which may yield smoother operation especially with lower torque servos.

Any recommended cleaning methods?

Use a soft brush and mild detergent if needed, then dry thoroughly; avoid steel brushes or harsh abrasives that could damage the anodised surface.
