This aluminium front and rear damper set is an upgrade item for the TAMIYA DB01 chassis, issued as 3Racing part DB01-01/LB. The kit swaps standard shock bodies for aluminium versions to provide a firmer mounting base and simplify routine rebuilds.
The change is focused on maintenance and heat handling rather than altering suspension geometry. Typically you will re-use existing springs and internals unless you decide to experiment with different pistons or oils to tune damping on your DB01.
Workshop guidance: confirm correct thread engagement at rod ends, inspect seals before filling with oil, and preserve the original mounting orientation to keep handling consistent. Cleaning and periodic oil replacement will sustain predictable damping performance.
For DB01 pilots seeking a robust and serviceable damper option, this 3Racing DB01-01/LB set offers a direct swap while keeping the DB01 shock architecture and tuning options intact.
