Improve Front-End Consistency with Tamiya 54697 Rigid Suspension Mount 05D

The Tamiya 54697 Rigid Separate Suspension Mount 05D is an aluminium replacement for factory plastic mounts, aimed at delivering a firmer front end and steadier handling. It is compatible with TRF419, TRF419X and TB EVO 6 chassis types and suits racers wanting clearer feedback from the front axle.

Roll Centre and Setup Impact

These mounts set a 4.5mm roll centre, which is 0.5mm lower than some other options, giving additional tuning latitude for front-end behaviour. The change helps achieve more consistent steering and corner entry characteristics.

Compatibility and Additional Parts

The Tamiya 54697 will fit TRF419, TRF419X, EVO 6 and TA-07 chassis and is commonly used to replace plastic mounts on the TA-07 PRO to boost front suspension rigidity. For extra tuning choices you can use the Item 54617 setting spacers alongside these mounts.

Increasing front mount rigidity changes how camber moves under load, so expect different tyre contact during cornering and adjust camber or roll stiffness accordingly.
Yes, compatible setting spacers are sold as Item 54617 to extend tuning range when using the aluminium mounts.
Adjusting droop and damper tuning is often beneficial after fitting these mounts since the chassis roll characteristics will change; test incrementally to find the best balance.
