Stronger Steering for Your TC-01

The Tamiya 54958 aluminium steering arms upgrade eliminates the flex of stock plastic parts on the TC-01 chassis. Precision machined, these arms create a firmer link between the servo and the front wheels, improving steering accuracy.

Performance Gains from Aluminium

Aluminium reduces deformation under load, so steering inputs translate more directly to tyre movement. This is useful for competitive drivers and for those who expect consistent handling after repeated impacts.

Features Summary

  • Material: Machined aluminium for higher strength and wear resistance
  • Finish: Blue anodised Tamiya finish for neat protection
  • Compatibility: Specifically matched to TC-01 chassis cars
  • Installation: Designed to replace T4 and T7 plastic parts

Installation Recommendations

For a fully stiffened front end fit the aluminium steering bridge (54957) alongside these arms. Note that 850 (8x5mm) ball bearings are recommended for the pivots and are not supplied with the kit.

Their increased toughness makes them a good option for bashing, though severe impacts can still damage metal parts. Inspect after crashes.
Using a mild thread locker on metal-to-metal joints helps prevent loosening during hard running. Use removable grade so maintenance remains possible.
Light cosmetic changes are possible but may affect the protective anodised layer. If you change finish, ensure no burrs or rough spots remain that could wear bearings.
