Tamiya TT01 50mm Alloy Damper - TT050 by GPM  [TT050]

50mm aluminium damper for TT01 applications

This 50mm aluminium damper is an aftermarket replacement developed for the Tamiya TT01 chassis and identified as model TT050. It serves as a drop-in option for stock shocks or as a component for evaluating damping changes. The damper body is machined aluminium alloy and the unit ships with mounting screws for direct assembly.

Installation procedure for TT01-style shock mounts involves removing factory dampers, positioning the alloy units, and securing them with the supplied screws. Use thread-lock on metal threaded connections where applicable and verify suspension travel and preload after assembly to maintain intended geometry. The alloy body increases structural stiffness and changes thermal behaviour relative to plastic parts, factors that should be considered when selecting damper oil and springs for tuning.

For hobbyists seeking a robust alloy replacement or a performance-oriented test piece for the TT01, the GPM TT050 provides a precision-fit option; verify mount spacing and stroke before final torque-up.
