Wide Angle Front Swing Shaft for DB01

The Tamiya 54118 front swing shaft is built to cope with larger swing and axle angles on the DB01 chassis, allowing smoother power flow under demanding conditions. It helps reduce binding when the suspension is highly articulated.

Components and Compatibility

The assembly includes these parts:

  • WO Front Swing Shaft: 78mm x 2
  • WO Front Axle: x 2
  • Front Upright for 950 Ball Bearing: x 1
  • 950 Ball Bearings: x 2

Fits DB01, TRF501X, and TRF501X WE chassis and replaces factory uprights to improve front driveline geometry.

Installation Notes

Ensure bearings are fully seated and grub screws are secured without stripping. Check alignment after fitting to avoid uneven wear and to keep steering response reliable.

Yes. The Tamiya 54118 is specified to be compatible with TRF501X series front assemblies as noted, but check your current upright and hub spacing before final fitment.
If the kit includes new 950 bearings, use them. Fresh bearings reduce initial play and improve longevity compared to reusing worn units.
Major setup changes are not usually needed, but after fitting check toe and camber to confirm no geometry shift occurred during installation.
