Reduce Unsprung Weight for Better Control

The Tamiya 53939 Lightweight Wheel Axle is a straightforward upgrade for drivers wanting more immediate suspension action. Forged from aluminium, the part aims to keep strength up and weight down so your model tracks more predictably.

Engineered for Reversible Suspension Use

This axle fits reversible suspension configurations, giving you an option to improve agility across compatible Tamiya chassis. The decreased unsprung mass helps the wheels settle faster after hits, improving stability at speed.

Practical Benefits at a Glance

Robust Aluminium: A light but sturdy axle material that stands up to regular bashing and racing.
Quicker Suspension Response: Lower unsprung weight allows shocks and springs to react faster for cleaner handling.
Flexible Fitment: Designed for reversible suspension setups common on many Tamiya kits.

Does this axle require shims for a tight fit?

Some chassis may need small shims or spacers to achieve the correct endplay; check wheel bearing tolerance during installation.

Will this axle last for regular off-road use?

Yes, aluminium offers a good life for off-road running provided you avoid severe impacts and perform routine inspections.

Should I adjust shock settings after fitting?

Tuning spring rates or damping may help you exploit the reduced unsprung weight; small adjustments can yield better mid-corner stability.
