Refine Rear End Setup with Tamiya 54488 Shims

Model builders and track drivers can use the Tamiya 54488 Aluminum Large Rear Axle Washers to achieve precise axle shimming on TRF platforms. They are straightforward parts to include when checking rear-end geometry.

Specifications and Advantages

Material: Aluminium construction gives a good strength to weight ratio suited to competitive and club level use.
Dimensions: Inner diameter 5mm, outer diameter 12mm, thickness 1.75mm for accurate axle spacing.
Color: Distinct blue coating makes it simple to spot shims when servicing the car.

Applicable Tamiya Models

These shims are suitable for multiple Tamiya cars, such as TRF201, TRF511, TRF502X, DN-01, DB01, and DB02. Fit them when you need repeatable axle spacing or to recover from damaged original shims.

How do I check fit before running?

Measure the hub bore and axle diameter and confirm they match the washer inner diameter of 5mm and outer seating of 12mm. Trial fit on the bench before track use.

Are these suitable for wet conditions?

The anodised blue finish provides some protection but avoid prolonged exposure to water and clean and dry parts after wet runs to prolong life.

Can I mix these with other shim materials?

Mixing aluminium shims with plastic or steel spacers is possible, but ensure the combined thickness and seating remain correct to prevent binding or misalignment.
