Made from gun metal aluminum, this front damper stay is an aftermarket replacement for the TAMIYA Thunder Dragon and Thunder Shot front suspension tower. It is offered as a metal alternative to the original plastic stay to support routine repairs and chassis tuning work.
Fitment depends on the stock mounting points of the Thunder Dragon and Thunder Shot platforms; align the part with the chassis screw holes and tighten hardware gradually to avoid misalignment. Verify that damper cap fitment and tower clearance remain unchanged after installation to maintain correct suspension operation.
When used as part of a setup progression, the aluminum stay helps stabilise damper geometry, which can deliver more predictable steering response during aggressive cornering or repeated track sessions. Introduce the upgrade as one step in your tuning process and compare handling before and after the swap.
