Sharpen XV-02 handling using the Tamiya 51698 6 degree caster block

The Tamiya 51698 XV-02 D Parts supply a 6 degree caster block aimed at racers and club drivers seeking firmer steering return and improved line holding. It is manufactured for reliable fitment on a range of Tamiya touring car chassis.

Handling improvements from adding caster

A 6 degree caster tends to stabilise the car through high speed sections and improves turn-in predictability. Drivers aiming for consistent lap times will often make this a standard tuning step.

Compatibility checklist and quick advice

This part fits TD2, TD4, XV-01, XV-01T, XV-01 PRO and XV-02 PRO chassis. When installing, inspect the mating surfaces and replace worn bearings or studs to keep steering precision. Consult the Tamiya R/C Parts Matching List for complete compatibility information.

Not usually. It increases stability and steering feedback, which can make the car feel more controlled. Some drivers prefer a softer setup for casual driving though.
Compare the part number against your chassis parts list and test fit on the steering knuckle. If unsure, view the Tamiya R/C Parts Matching List or contact a dealer for confirmation.
Periodically check for play in the steering assembly, lubricate pivot points lightly and replace worn ball studs to preserve alignment and response.
