This aluminium friction damper post is a scale RC upgrade intended for TAMIYA TT-01 Type-E chassis and is catalogued as F103GT-22/LB. It offers a firmer attachment compared with many factory posts, helping to secure friction dampers on touring car setups.
Fitment is specific to the TT-01 Type-E models noted in the product title, so verify your chassis before ordering. The part is described as aluminium and is for model use only.
Installation is suited to hobbyists comfortable with basic RC maintenance: remove the OEM post, align the aluminium post to the damper mount and fasten with the existing screws where appropriate. Avoid forcing hardware or changing original screw positions to prevent damage to the surrounding plastic parts.
When tuning, the post helps maintain damper alignment and reduces mount movement, which can improve the consistency of friction damping adjustments. It acts as a resilient mounting point rather than an active tuning device itself.
Upkeep involves routine checks of fastener tightness after initial runs, inspection for thread or interface wear, and replacement if excessive play is detected. Do not apply lubricants or adhesives at the mating surfaces unless recommended by the damper manufacturer.
