Front upright aluminum upgrade

This aluminum front upright set replaces the stock plastic pieces on Tamiya WR02, DT03T and Blitzer Beetle front suspension to provide firmer support at the steering knuckle and reduce deflection under load. The stiffer mounting reduces unwanted movement so steering inputs stay more consistent when cornering hard or driving over mixed surfaces.

Installation uses the standard front upright swap routine for these Tamiya platforms: remove the wheel hub and related hardware, transfer existing bearings and pins into the new uprights, then refit and check kingpin alignment and steering geometry. Typical hex drivers and pliers used for Tamiya service are all you need.

As an installation-first upgrade, pair this part with slightly firmer front bushings or a modest change to toe settings to feel the difference. Confirm full suspension travel and ensure nothing binds after tightening hardware.

Compatibility

  • WR02
  • DT03T
  • Blitzer Beetle

Will standard Tamiya front wheel hubs and bearings fit these uprights?

Yes. The uprights are machined to accept the same wheel hubs and bearings used on the original Tamiya front uprights for WR02, DT03T and Blitzer Beetle, so reuse of those parts is expected.

Do I need different screws or pins to install this set?

In most cases no. Use the stock hex screws and pins from your chassis and verify torque after installation; replace any worn hardware if needed.

What setup checks should I perform after fitting the uprights?

Recheck toe and camber, confirm kingpin angle, and run the suspension through full travel to ensure no binding. Small shock or sway bar adjustments can help fine tune steering feel.
