Tweak XV-01 Handling with Tamiya 54517

The Tamiya 54517 Front One-Way Set is aimed at improving the dynamic behaviour of XV-01 chassis cars. By replacing the factory front gear differential, the setup ensures braking force is transferred to the rear wheels only, promoting an over-steer feel that helps in tight cornering. It is a practical upgrade for enthusiasts refining on-track performance.

Overview and Compatible Models

Design: Purpose-built housing and cup joint parts tuned for dependable fitment.
Compatibility: Compatible with XV-01, XV-01T, and XV-01TC models.
Functionality: Boosts front-end responsiveness by concentrating braking effect at the rear.

Does this require other modifications to work well?

No mandatory changes are required, but many drivers adjust suspension or tyre choice to match the increased over-steer tendency.

Are replacement parts common if something wears out?

Replacement cup joints and housing parts are available through Tamiya parts channels; inspect components regularly to spot wear early.

Which track types suit this upgrade?

It performs best on smooth, technical on-road layouts where sharper turn-in and controlled cornering help lap times.
