This machined aluminum front C-hub is made as a direct swap for TAMIYA Thunder Shot, Thunder Dragon, Fire Dragon and Terra Scorcher 1/10 buggies. It replaces the factory plastic hub to provide a firmer steering mount and more repeatable steering feel during driving and setup.
Fitment and role: the component installs into the original steering knuckle area and functions as the forward pivot for the front suspension, influencing toe and steering geometry while using your existing arms and knuckles. It matches the stock mounting points for a straightforward replacement.
Installation notes: use the vehicle’s original fasteners and confirm alignment before final torque to avoid binding. Applying a light thread locker to metal fasteners is advised if you run rough tracks regularly. Recheck steering freeplay and re-trim linkages after fitting to restore the intended handling.
Tuning impact: swapping to an aluminum C-hub helps hold suspension alignment under load and typically sharpens front-end response, which is beneficial when adjusting steering sensitivity or running firmer springs and higher damping.
