Sharper handling with Tamiya 53907

The Tamiya 53907 - 5x8mm Aluminum Hex Ball Connector is designed for hobbyists focused on handling precision. It alters the upper arm mounting on competitive chassis such as the TA05 and TRF415MSX to give a more controllable setup window.

Strong aluminium build and closer adjustment

Forged from aluminium for strength and lightweight feel, this connector holds up under repeated track use. The length from bearing face to the ball is shortened to 4mm instead of the more common 5mm, enabling finer tuning of suspension link geometry.

Model fits and tuning applications

Fits a range of Tamiya models including the TA05, TRF415MSX and TB Evolution IV. It is a handy upgrade when you want to tweak turn-in, midcorner balance or overall steering feel across different track surfaces.

Does the connector require special ball cups?

No special cups are usually required if your model uses standard 5x8mm ball ends. Always check the cup inner diameter and fit before final installation.

How will this affect steering feel?

The shorter spacing offers a different leverage ratio, which can sharpen turn-in and make steering more responsive. Adjust incrementally and test to match your driving style.

Any recommended follow-up tweaks after fitting?

After fitting, recheck toe, camber and roll centre and perform a short test run. Small changes to droop and spring rates may be needed to fully optimise handling.

Is aluminium preferable to plastic links here?

Aluminium gives more consistent geometry under load and resists wear better than plastic, though it can transfer more shock to other parts. Balance durability with overall setup needs.
