Precision steering upgrade for TT-02 Type-S

If you want to sharpen the handling of a TT-02 Type-S, the Tamiya 54965 kit replaces stock plastic parts with machined aluminum components for better steering feel and longer service life. The set focuses on smoother movement and tougher mounting points to reduce slop under load.

Main parts and benefits

  • Aluminum Steering Bridge: Long tie-rod design that promotes consistent steering response.
  • Aluminum Steering Arms: Left and right arms supplied for even control across the front end.
  • Reinforced Adjusters: Open face adjusters make fine tuning easier when setting toe and ackermann.
  • Aluminum Steering Posts: Strong mounting posts that resist bending during impacts.
  • Turnbuckle Shafts: Two 3x38mm and one 3x42mm shafts included to allow accurate geometry setup.
  • Complete Installation Kit: Screws and small fittings are provided for a straightforward swap over.
  • Enhanced Durability: Updated steering post locations reduce wear and increase reliability.

Fitment and recommended use

Designed specifically for the TT-02 Type-S chassis, this steering set is aimed at club racers and weekend tuners who want firmer, more predictable front end behaviour. It is a direct upgrade for Type-S layouts and improves longevity compared with the standard parts.

Yes, the set is made for the TT-02 Type-S and installs in place of the original steering components. Other TT-02 variants may need minor changes.
