This aluminum rear lower suspension arm is supplied as an aftermarket replacement for the Tamiya XV-01 chassis, stamped XV01-13405-LB. It is a metal alternative to the factory plastic arm where fitment permits, aimed at owners seeking a firmer, more consistent rear suspension response.
Fit instructions: confirm hinge pin size and wheel hub interfacing before final assembly, and reuse the original pins and hardware when compatible. Because metal parts may present slight fit differences versus plastic, make gradual adjustments to avoid changing wheel offset or toe unintentionally.
Handling notes: swapping to an aluminum arm generally tightens rear behaviour and helps preserve suspension geometry under load, useful when testing roll centre and anti-squat settings. Combine the arm with matched rear uprights and tuned shock settings to better isolate handling changes.
