Technical notes on the front knuckle

This front upright is an aluminum replacement compatible with TAMIYA 1/10 scale Hornet, Grasshopper, Wild One, F104 and F103 kits. The black anodized unit acts as a direct replacement upright, providing a rigid connection for wheel hubs and steering link attachments.

Compatibility is restricted to the model names shown in the title. The item is intended to be used with the kit's original steering linkages, hubs, and hardware; always verify clearances and bearing seating before final installation.

When used for setup the part reduces steering slop and supplies a firm reference for alignment and suspension adjustments. It is designed for hobby setup and routine maintenance rather than for altering base suspension geometry.

Are all TAMIYA Hornet-era models covered by this part?

The part is compatible only with the models listed: Hornet, Grasshopper, Wild One, F104 and F103. Variants or heavily modified chassis may require additional checks or spacers.

Do I need to modify the kit hubs or use adaptors?

Most stock hubs will fit, but confirm bearing depth and hub engagement. If fitment differs, use the correct spacer or hub adapter rather than forcing parts together.

How should I verify fit before full assembly?

Trial-assemble the hub and steering link on the upright, rotate the assembly to check for binding, and ensure bearings seat correctly. Only then tighten to final torque.
