Machined alloy rear knuckle for XV-01 applications

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.

Confirm bore alignment and screw engagement depth, check for interference with suspension travel, and ensure mating surfaces are free from burrs or casting flash.
Use light thread locker where appropriate for metal-to-metal fastenings and observe manufacturer torque settings to prevent loosening under vibration.
In many cases the knuckle is compatible as a standalone upgrade, but consider reviewing link hardware and shock mount choices to capitalise on the reduced flex and improved response.
