This aftermarket rear upper tie rod is engineered for the Tamiya TT02B chassis, combining a spring steel centre section with plastic ball ends to interface with factory suspension link points while minimising mass.
Installation follows a direct-swap procedure: remove the OEM rear upper rod and secure this component to the same rear bulkhead and suspension mounts. After fitment, verify rear toe and confirm unobstructed suspension travel; fine adjustments to toe can be achieved by rotating the rod's adjustable section if applicable to the chassis layout.
From a setup perspective the spring steel centre increases axial stiffness versus standard plastic rods, improving rear toe retention under braking and lateral loads on 1/10 touring car applications. The component is intended for staged upgrades or as a direct replacement when improving rear-end consistency.
