Rear upper link summary

This spring steel rear upper tie rod is an aftermarket replacement link made for the Tamiya Wild Willy 2 WR-02 scale chassis, supplied as a 1 pair set WW2057S. It is shaped as an RC-scale linkage intended to mount at the rear upper link position where it connects the hub or knuckle to the chassis on the WR-02 layout.

Fit and function: the component replaces worn or stock plastic links, restoring the intended suspension geometry while offering a stiffer steel option for rear suspension tuning. It installs as a direct replacement at the WR-02 rear upper location to reduce flex under load and help preserve toe and camber during hard cornering or when using heavier setups.

Installation notes: remove the existing rear upper tie rod and transfer the ball ends or linkage hardware, using the model's original fasteners and pins. No cutting or special fabrication is required; confirm thread engagement and tighten ball studs to the recommended fit for RC link assemblies.

Care and tuning role: spring steel gives greater resistance to bending compared with common plastics, making this link suitable for drivers seeking firmer rear response or replacing fatigued parts. Check ball end wear regularly and keep pivot points lightly lubricated to minimise play.

Yes, the part is produced as a direct replacement for the WR-02 rear upper tie rod position and is intended to match the stock mounting pattern.
No new hardware is typically required; reuse the model's original ball ends and linkage pins, but inspect threads and pins for wear before reassembly.
Spring steel reduces flex compared with plastic links, tightening rear response and helping maintain alignment under lateral load, which can improve consistency on rough surfaces.
