Lightweight aluminum uprights for TA-series TAMIYA cars

These machined dark blue aluminum front uprights are made for TAMIYA TA-series vehicles and are identified as JR-TA101-DB. They serve as direct replacements for the original plastic uprights, reducing flex around the steering pivot and improving the connection between the hub and steering rod while retaining stock mounting points.

Installation advice: the uprights are compatible with the vehicle's existing kingpin and ball-stud layout and use the original hub carrier hardware. Confirm ball-stud engagement and wheel hex alignment during trial assembly; remove any paint or thread-lock that interferes with smooth movement. Intended for scale RC chassis applications only.

Tuning notes: installing aluminum uprights alters steering compliance and the way loads pass through the front suspension. Drivers will notice reduced compliance under sharp steering inputs; follow up with adjustments to toe, camber, and steering link placement to fine-tune handling.

Compatibility

Aluminum uprights reduce deflection at the pivot, producing a crisper steering response and more predictable turn-in. You may need to soften other suspension components if the front becomes too harsh.
Yes. Because load transfer changes, re-check and fine-tune toe and camber to match your driving style and to regain the handling balance you prefer.
They can alter front end behavior; consider revising damper rebound and spring rates to complement the increased front-end stiffness for a smoother transition through bumps and turns.
