Tamiya 54474 RC DB02 Front Carbon Damper Stay OP-1474 - Carbon Strength Upgrade  [54474]

DB-02 Suspension Upgrade with Carbon Stay

The Tamiya 54474 RC DB02 Carbon Damper Stay Front replaces the stock fiberglass reinforced plastic damper stay on the DB-02 chassis. Made from a 3.5mm thick carbon fiber plate, this part adds stiffness to the front end so suspension tweaks have a more direct effect on handling.

Carbon Fiber Benefits

Carbon fiber offers an excellent strength-to-weight ratio, so you get increased rigidity without a heavy penalty. Upgrading to this carbon damper stay helps reduce flex under load and improves stability during high speed runs and tighter cornering.

Fitting and Care

Swapping out the original M1 resin components for this carbon piece is simple with standard RC tools. Tighten screws evenly to avoid uneven stress on the plate and check fasteners after hard bashing to keep the damper stay in good condition.
