This blue aluminum front arm bulk is an RC-scale replacement part for TAMIYA CW-01 based kits, including The Hornet and Grasshopper. It replaces the stock plastic unit and gives a firmer mounting point for the front suspension assembly while offering a durable, corrosion-resistant finish.
Compatibility is limited to the CW-01 platform models listed above. Installation involves swapping the original plastic bulk for the alloy part using the vehicle's existing fasteners; always confirm screw engagement and suspension travel after installation to avoid binding. The part is supplied as a single item designed to work with the original hardware and surrounding suspension components.
In setup and tuning scenarios the aluminum bulk reduces flex at the mounting point, which can influence steering precision and alignment stability. After fitting, reassess steering alignment and roll behavior as part of a measured tuning routine.
