Steering and Tuning Effects

The aluminium front knuckle arm set is designed for the TAMIYA XV-01 chassis and carries the JR-XV100-BK part code. These parts swap in for the factory plastic knuckles to stiffen the steering pivot and influence front-end response.

The black anodized finish protects the surfaces during normal use, and the knuckles are made to locate on the standard XV-01 steering assembly and suspension pick-up points. Typical fitting requires removing the original knuckles and transferring bearings and hardware before evaluating steering throw and alignment.

From a tuning standpoint, metal knuckles reduce compliance at the hub which can make steering input feel more immediate; when adding such hop-ups, re-evaluate camber, toe and servo loading and confirm there is no binding at full lock to protect other steering components.

They typically reduce hub flex, delivering a firmer and more direct steering response, which can change how you set camber and toe for handling balance.
Yes, recheck camber and toe because the altered stiffness can shift handling; small adjustments may be needed to regain the desired balance.
They can slightly increase steering loads due to reduced flex, so verify servo capability and check for any binding at full lock to avoid excess stress.
