This GB-02/HD ball stud set is a heavy duty replacement intended for Tamiya GB-01 and GB-01T RC chassis ball-stud locations. It is offered as a direct swap option to address wear or breakage of factory ball studs and to provide a more robust connection point for suspension and steering linkages.
Fit checklist: confirm each stud seats cleanly in the original mounting hole, thread engagement is secure, and the linked hardware moves freely through its full range. The set suits routine maintenance, track sessions, and any case where stock studs have shown premature wear.
Installation notes: remove the old studs, clean mating threads and holes, and hand-start replacements to check alignment before final tightening. Avoid overtightening into plastic parts; use moderate torque and confirm smooth articulation of the connected linkage.
Tuning effect: installing heavier duty studs reduces play at pivot points so the chassis holds consistent geometry under load, helping drivers maintain predictable handling during setup changes without changing suspension geometry.
