22080 RC LO-MOUNT ALUMINUM RETAINERS for LG Diameter springs
Use these Lo-Mount Aluminum Retainers for Large-Diameter Springs to position large-diameter springs lower on your favorite Tamiya on-road racing chassis.NOTE: Large-diameter springs are often used with Super Short Big Bore dampers.
• Lo-Mount Aluminum Retainers for Large-Diameter Springs x4.
• 5.5x0.5mm aluminum spacers x4
• Use to lower damper spring position, ensuring smoother spring motion and nimble handling.
• Making the sections between damper ends and cylinders thinner enables the efficient use of damper stroke.
• Compatible with cars featuring large-diameter springs.
• The use of some suspension arms and damper angles may obstruct suspension arm movement; if so, shave down any parts which encounter the dampers.
22078 Aluminum Diff Holders (0.8 Offset, 2 Pcs.)
22079 Aluminum Diff Holders (0.8 Offset, 2 Pcs.)
These are differential diff holders made from aluminum. They are used to secure the gear differential while also allowing you to adjust the belt tension on your car. They are designed to replace the standard plastic holders used on the Tamiya TA-08, TRF420 and TRF420X chassis platforms.• Aluminum Differential Holders x2
• Rigid, aluminum components securely hold the notch which adjusts belt tension, limit deformation under load and ensure smooth rotation.
• These components improve the rigidity of connecting sections with bulkheads and properly transmit oil damper motion to the chassis.
• Item 22079 Aluminum Differential Holders (0.5mm Offset, 2pcs.) can also be used depending on surface conditions. Raising the differential stabilizes the car on high-grip surfaces. (Refer to table below.)
