Performance front upper arms for Tamiya Hotshot

These aluminium front upper suspension arms are designed for Tamiya Hotshot family 4WD models and are supplied as part JR-THS04-LB. They replace the standard plastic arms to give a more rigid mounting point and more predictable behaviour from the front suspension.

Install the arms to achieve a firmer linkage for tuning and sharper handling. The units retain the original geometry and screw positions so they mate with the existing suspension towers and steering knuckles without chassis alteration.

  • Item: Front upper suspension arms

For tuners seeking improved front-end consistency, these aluminium arms provide a direct replacement that stiffens the linkage while preserving stock fitment; confirm correct torque values when fitting to protect threads.

Will switching to aluminium change my front-end geometry under load?

Stiffer arms reduce flex, which can alter dynamic alignment under load; you may notice crisper turn-in and less compliance compared with plastic arms.

Should I retune shocks or toe settings after installing these?

Because the front feels firmer, small adjustments to shock damping or toe may be beneficial to regain the handling balance you prefer.

Do these arms affect steering feel for different surfaces?

A stiffer mounting point tends to transmit more precise steering inputs, which is useful on hardpack and carpet; on loose surfaces you may want to soften other settings to keep grip.

Any tips for setup testing after fitting?

Start with baseline settings, then test small increments to damping and toe while noting front-end responsiveness; record changes so you can revert if needed.
