Simple suspension adjustments with Tamiya 54987

The Tamiya 54987 Suspension Mount Shim Set is designed to simplify suspension tuning for modelers. It includes U-shaped shims in 0.2mm and 0.3mm that can be fitted without taking mount screws out, so changes are quicker and less fiddly.

Which Chassis Work with These Shims

These shims suit a range of Tamiya chassis patterns, notably the M-07, M-08 and TC-01. Selecting between the two shim thicknesses lets you fine-tune suspension spacing to match driving preferences.

Why Use On-car Shims

No need to remove mount screws when installing the U-shaped shims.
Speeds up set up changes between practice and competition runs.
The two thicknesses provide options for minor or more obvious suspension tweaks.

How do these shims affect ride behaviour?

Changing shim thickness alters suspension spacing which can change the car's balance and how it responds. Test small changes first to learn the effect on your setup.

Will these suit aftermarket mounts?

They may fit aftermarket mounts if those mounts share the same U-shaped slot geometry. Always confirm dimensions before relying on them in a race setting.

Any maintenance advice?

Check shims periodically for bending or displacement after hard running. Replace shims that no longer seat flat to avoid inconsistent settings.
