This 50mm alloy damper is an aftermarket replacement built for the Tamiya TT01 chassis and listed as model TT050. It is suitable as a swap-in for stock shock units or for use when testing alternate damping setups. The damper body is aluminium alloy and the kit supplies mounting screws for fitting.
Installation on TT01-style shock mounts is straightforward: remove the original dampers, fit the alloy units into the mounts, and secure with the supplied screws. Apply thread-lock to metal fasteners where necessary, then confirm travel and preload to ensure the suspension geometry is correct. The alloy body provides increased rigidity and different heat transfer compared with plastic parts, which can change damping consistency during longer sessions.
For TT01 enthusiasts seeking a metal-bodied replacement or a tuning candidate, the GPM TT050 gives a direct-fit alloy option; always check mount spacing and stroke length before final assembly.
