Fine tune your XV-02 chassis with the Tamiya 51698 caster block

The Tamiya 51698 XV-02 D parts feature a 6 degree caster block built to sharpen steering feel and increase tracking stability. This replacement part helps keep race setups predictable and is compatible with a range of Tamiya chassis models, including TD2, TD4, XV-01 and XV-02 PRO.

Benefits of a 6 degree caster block

Fitting a 6 degree caster gives more straight line stability and stronger self-centering through turns, helping drivers carry speed with confidence on technical layouts. It is a common tuning step for drivers seeking crisper steering feedback without sacrificing control.

Fitment and fitting tips

This caster block is made to mate with Tamiya TD2, TD4, XV-01, XV-01T, XV-01 PRO and XV-02 PRO chassis. Check part alignment and tighten fasteners to the recommended torque to prevent premature wear. For full compatibility guidance consult the official Tamiya R/C Parts Matching List.

A 6 degree caster generally improves straight line stability and produces firmer steering return. Expect more predictable turn entry and better control at higher speeds.
Most installations reuse existing steering pins and hardware, but inspect bushings and ball studs for wear. Replace any compromised fasteners to ensure correct geometry.
Hard packed or carpet tracks will show the biggest gains in stability and steering precision. On loose surfaces a different caster or tyre choice may be preferred.
