This aluminium front suspension mount is a hop-up item for use on Tamiya GB-01 based chassis, intended as a replacement for the stock plastic mount to provide a firmer platform that helps hold geometry under load. The description emphasises fitment and installation considerations and explains how the part supports setup adjustments rather than offering performance guarantees.
Intended role: the mount stiffens the front pickup area to help retain suspension reference points when altering camber, caster or roll centre settings. It is aimed at model builders who prefer tighter mechanical tolerances during tuning on carpet, asphalt or short-course circuits.
Installation notes: the component mounts in the original GB-01 front location and uses factory screw points. Check suspension arm alignment and steering linkage clearance after fitting, and ensure no interference occurs with the servo horn or shock tower. Depending on chassis condition or past modifications, minor trimming of adjoining plastic parts may be required for a flush fit.
For GB-01 and GB-02 users seeking a reliable aluminium swap to reduce pickup flex and aid consistent setup, this front mount is a direct-replacement option; always confirm fitment on your chassis model before finishing the install.
