TAMIYA M-07 Precision Front Steering Knuckle (Aluminum) - JR-M701-LB by JAZRIDER  [JR-M701-LB]

Precision Front Steering Knuckle for M-07

This aluminum front steering knuckle is a direct-fit upgrade for the Tamiya M-07 chassis, designed to replace the standard plastic knuckles and offer a metal alternative within the steering assembly. The component is identified as aluminum in the listing and is intended to improve durability and provide more consistent steering response for model car setups.

Installation is routine for those familiar with M-07 servicing: remove wheel and hub, unbolt the OEM plastic knuckle using the chassis' original hardware, then mount the aluminum knuckle in the same locations. Check kingpin alignment and steering-arm orientation after fitting, and secure fasteners to the manufacturer's torque guidance to prevent binding while keeping free movement.

From a tuning perspective, the knuckle stiffens the steering assembly and reduces wear rather than altering suspension geometry. Drivers will notice steadier steering feedback during extended runs, which can make toe and caster tweaks behave more predictably. Be sure bearings seat correctly and confirm the hub rotates without side play.
