Compact damper overview for the Tamiya 95488 Short Mass Damper Block

The Tamiya 95488 Short Mass Damper Block is a compact tuning part for Mini 4WD racers who want to refine handling and stability. At 8x8x14mm it provides a shorter alternative to longer mass dampers, letting you experiment with placement and balance on the chassis.

Operation and chassis compatibility

Mass dampers reduce rebound effects after jumps and heavy landings, helping the car stay planted. This short block fits lower mounting positions and can be set either tightly or with slight play to vary its damping effect. It works with MA, FM-A, and AR chassis layouts for versatile use across different Mini 4WD builds.

Installation, weight and tuning tips

Each block weighs about 6.6g and ships with the small hardware needed for mounting. You can adapt the fit to suit track demands, choosing a fixed mount for predictability or a freer mount for dynamic response. Small adjustments to position and restraint will change how your car rolls and recovers.

This short mass damper is compatible with MA, FM-A and AR chassis types, allowing installation in lower zones of the chassis where clearance is limited.
By adding mass low on the chassis and allowing controlled movement, the damper helps absorb impacts after jumps and reduces bounce, which improves traction and control.
Both methods are valid: a fixed mount gives predictable behaviour while a slightly loose fit lets the weight shift for dynamic damping. Try both to see which suits your track.
The block includes the small parts required for attachment so you can fit it straight away, though you may want spare screws or washers for custom setups.
