Dial In Suspension with Tamiya 3455173 Rear Rods

The Tamiya 3455173 Rear Piston Rod Set is built for hobbyists who service or upgrade classic rally RC cars. Made to suit the Porsche 959 and Toyota Celica GrB, these rods help preserve consistent shock action and reliable handling under hard running.

Main Benefits and Practical Uses

Precision Engineering: Manufactured by Tamiya to allow fine suspension adjustments that improve handling and corner stability.
Compatibility: Intended for use with the matching Tamiya 58059 and 58064 chassis kits for a straightforward swap-in fit.
Durability: Designed to take repeated use during competitive or club runs, reducing the need for frequent replacements.

Will these piston rods fit other Tamiya rally kits?

They are specified for the Porsche 959 and Toyota Celica GrB but can be used on other models that share the same damper dimensions. Always compare shaft diameter and thread length before fitting.

Any tips for installing the rear piston rods?

Remove the old rods, inspect shock shafts and seals for wear, then fit the new rods making sure threads are fully engaged and there is no binding in the shock travel.

How should I maintain these rods for long life?

Regularly check for straightness and corrosion, refresh shock oil as needed, and replace rods if they bend after a strong impact to keep handling consistent.
