Blue Aluminum Steering Upgrade - Tamiya 54148

Upgrade the steering on a DB01 chassis with the Tamiya 54148 blue anodised aluminium steering posts. They remove a bit of weight up front and offer better wear resistance than the original steel posts.

Chassis Compatibility

These steering posts are made to fit TRF501X, TRF511 and any DB01 chassis without modification. The swap reduces around 1.6g of mass at the steering area, helping with quicker turn-in across varied surfaces.

Fitting Tips

Clean all contact points before assembly and keep the anodised finish free from grit. Standard hand tools are sufficient and even torque on fasteners will help prevent any play developing in use.

Can I fit these to older DB01 parts?

Most DB01-era components are compatible, but double-check alignment and steering geometry as very old parts may need small adjustments to mate perfectly.

Are they resistant to coastal corrosion?

The anodised layer helps resist corrosion, but rinse and dry parts after exposure to salt and inspect steel fixings for rust.

Should I recheck the posts after first runs?

Yes, check the posts and retaining screws after initial runs and as part of routine maintenance to keep everything tight and aligned.
