Tamiya M07 Front lower suspension mount 5 degree caster setup M07-18 by 3Racing  [M07-18]

Front lower mount introduction

This front lower suspension mount is an RC hop-up tailored to the Tamiya M07 chassis and incorporates a 5 degree caster to change front-end dynamics. It replaces the standard lower link mount and is aimed at setup work where small geometry changes are evaluated.

Applying 5 degree caster moves the steering axis to affect turn-in response and stability at speed. Choose this mount when you need crisper front grip and improved self-centering without altering major suspension components. The change is geometric and does not affect drivetrain or braking functions.

Fitting is simple for those familiar with M07 front assemblies: remove the original lower mount, fit the hop-up in the same position, and refit following the original mounting sequence. After installation check toe and steering travel, then carry out incremental track tests to assess corner entry and mid-corner balance.

Maintenance follows normal small-scale suspension practice: check fixing points for tightness and wear after initial runs, and ensure steering linkages remain free as caster changes can affect angles and binding risk.
