Performance tuning for the M05 using the Tamiya 54542 - M05 mount

The Tamiya 54542 - M05 is an aluminum rear suspension mount engineered to give the M05 chassis a 1-degree toe-in, helping to stabilise the rear and enhance traction during acceleration and cornering. It suits drivers who like to tweak setup parts to achieve cleaner handling characteristics.

Feature summary for racers and modders

Material: CNC-friendly aluminum build for reliable service life under regular tuning and use.
Performance: 1-degree toe-in creates a small but effective change in rear grip and steering balance.
Compatibility: Designed for short, medium and long wheelbase M05 variants.
Adjustability: Supplied as two components so you can flip or orient the mount to suit your layout.

Do I need special tools to fit this mount?

Basic hex drivers and a small torque driver are enough; use thread locker on metal-to-metal fasteners for secure installation.

Will the aluminium change chassis flex or feel?

The alloy mount slightly stiffens the rear pickup area, which can sharpen response and improve consistency on smooth layouts.

What should I check after the first run?

Inspect mounting screws for tightness, verify toe angles, and confirm there is no interference with the driveshaft or suspension travel.
