High precision aluminium rear knuckle for MF01X

This aluminium rear knuckle arm is an aftermarket replacement tailored to the Tamiya MF01X platform and supplied as a 1pr set. It replaces the stock polymer knuckles to provide a stiffer, more repeatable hub interface suited to performance tuning and extended service life.

The component modifies rear steering geometry stiffness and mass distribution relative to original parts, enabling finer adjustment of toe and camber response under dynamic load. The aluminium construction improves resistance to deformation and helps maintain alignment during aggressive use.

Installation procedure follows standard MF01X knuckle replacement steps: remove the rear hub carriers and fasteners, transfer bearings and retainer pins from the OEM units, then secure the aluminium knuckle with the original hardware using appropriate thread locking. Verify full suspension travel and wheel alignment after installation to confirm correct fitment.

Specifications

  • Item: Rear knuckle arm, 1pr set
  • Material: Aluminium
  • Model Number: MF022
  • Compatibility: Tamiya MF01X

Specified for builders seeking a precision metal alternative to OEM knuckles on the MF01X, this part provides a stable hub mounting surface for consistent setup and reduced wear on critical seating surfaces.

What machining tolerances are important for fit?

Bearing seat concentricity and mounting hole position tolerance are critical; check that transferred bearings seat without axial play and that mounting holes align with factory points.

How should I protect aluminium contact surfaces?

Keep contact areas clean and lightly lubricated where appropriate. For corrosive environments, use a thin protective coating on exposed aluminium to reduce oxidation.

Are any setup changes recommended after fitting?

Reassess toe and camber under static and loaded conditions, as increased stiffness can reveal different alignment behaviour; make incremental adjustments and log settings for comparison.
