It is a handy option for hobbyists who run or restore classic Tamiya models.

Model fit and drive role

This joint is specifically matched to a range of vintage Tamiya vehicles, including the RC Subaru Brat, Frog, Blackfoot 2016, Monster Beetle 2015 and other similar models. It functions as a key link in the drivetrain, helping maintain smooth power transfer and reducing play in the gearbox system.
