Refine TT-02 behaviour with the Tamiya 54649 locking block

The Tamiya 54649 - TT-02 Differential Locking Block is a direct replacement that alters the handling of TT-02 chassis cars. With the standard diff gears removed and this block fitted, the differential is locked, which can benefit driving on high-traction surfaces and help produce smoother drift transitions.

How to fit and when to use

Fitting the block is a simple swap: take out the existing differential gears from the case and fit the locking unit. The change suits drivers operating on grippy tarmac or carpet where a locked diff can increase traction and make slides more controllable.

Compatibility with TT-02 models

Specifically made for TT-02 variants, the locking block matches the TT-02 diff case for a reliable fit. Consider this upgrade when you need steadier corner exits or a more predictable drift setup on high-grip layouts.

Is this suitable for competition use?

For classes that allow locked differentials, this part can offer consistent traction. Check event rules first, as some race classes mandate open differentials.

Will drivetrain stress increase with a locked diff?

Locking the diff can transfer more load to the drivetrain under cornering and acceleration. Ensure bearings and motor are in good condition and monitor for extra wear.

What setup tweaks improve performance with this block?

Try softer rear springing, small toe adjustments and tyre compound changes to balance handling after fitting the locking block. Test incrementally to find the best combination.
