This aftermarket alloy rear knuckle arm is supplied for the TAMIYA XV-01 chassis and serves as a stronger replacement for the plastic stock knuckle, providing a more rigid mounting point for rear suspension and steering linkages while preserving original suspension geometry.
Engineering notes: manufactured from aluminium alloy with attention to dimensional stability to resist wear under load. The part is designed to use the existing XV-01 rear knuckle mounting locations; verify fastener specification and clearance tolerances during assembly to ensure correct function.
Performance tuning: upgrading to an alloy rear knuckle reduces upright flex and increases repeatability of rear behaviour when modifying roll centre, camber link length, or shock mount positions. The stiffer mounting allows finer adjustments in setup without geometry drift under load.
