WW2160ST Spring-steel Anti-thread Turnbuckle Set for TAMIYA WR-02 by GPM  [WW2160ST]

Spring steel anti-thread turnbuckle set

The WW2160ST turnbuckle set is an aftermarket linkage upgrade for the TAMIYA Wild Willy 2 WR-02 platform, supplied as a 6pcs set of anti-thread turnbuckles made from spring steel. Designed for RC-scale use, these turnbuckles replace standard threaded link components to reduce self-loosening under vibration and handling loads.

The parts serve two primary roles on the WR-02 chassis: securing steering and suspension linkages, and offering predictable adjustment for toe, camber or ride-height corrections during setup. Spring steel construction maintains thread engagement while allowing the small flex needed to resist backing out when subject to shocks and repeated steering inputs.

Installation is typical for turnbuckle link replacements: remove the existing rod ends or threaded links, match length and thread pitch, install the turnbuckle with appropriate locking on each end, then verify full steering sweep and suspension travel for binding. Because these are spring steel parts, take care when using hex drivers or pliers to avoid marring threads during assembly.

Practical tuning notes: use the set to lock in small trim changes that would otherwise drift, check thread engagement visually after the first run, and retighten or re-seat as part of routine maintenance. These turnbuckles are intended to complement standard WR-02 setup work rather than change geometry by themselves.
