Stiffer Rear End with Tamiya 53800 Uprights

The Tamiya 53800 Aluminum Toe-In Rear Uprights are a straightforward upgrade for TT-01 and TGS chassis users. Bumping toe-in from 1 to 2 degrees helps the rear track cleaner and gives drivers more confidence through fast sections.

Why Aluminium Helps Performance

Aluminum uprights resist deformation better than plastic, keeping geometry consistent under load. The increased toe-in improves rear traction during acceleration and makes the car more stable during high speed straights.

Fitment Guide and Practical Advice

Made to match TT-01 and TGS mounting points, the Tamiya 53800 fits with standard components and needs little extra work. After fitting, check suspension travel and make small steering or diff adjustments to suit your preferred driving balance.

No, they use the same hinge pin locations as stock TT-01 and TGS parts, so existing pins and ball studs are normally compatible.
Changing rear toe-in mainly alters rear stability rather than front steering. You may notice a firmer rear that resists snap oversteer, which can change how you tune front-end settings.
Aluminum parts are typically heavier than plastic, but the durability and consistent geometry they deliver usually outweigh the small weight increase for track-focused setups.
You do not have to change the diff, but tuning diff stiffness along with toe settings can help you find the best balance between traction and cornering response.
