FAQs

What tools are needed for installation?

You will need a turnbuckle wrench, a small screwdriver, and possibly a set of pliers. The chassis manual will list the specific tools needed.

Can I use this set on other Tamiya models?

This set is primarily designed for the TT-02B chassis, Neo Scorcher, and Dual Ridge models. Check the parts compatibility for other models.

How do I know what adjustments to make?

Experiment with small adjustments and observe how the car handles. Refer to online guides and forums for common setup tips.

How often should I check the turnbuckles?

Inspect the turnbuckles before and after each run for any signs of damage or loosening. Regular maintenance is essential for optimal performance.

What is the benefit of adjusting camber?

Adjusting camber can improve cornering grip. Negative camber generally increases grip in turns.

What is the benefit of adjusting toe?

Adjusting toe can improve straight-line stability (toe-in) or turning responsiveness (toe-out).

Where can I find setup recommendations?

Search online forums and RC car communities for setup suggestions for your specific track and conditions.

Troubleshooting

Car handles poorly after installing turnbuckles.

Check your setup against a known good starting point, and reset to factory settings. Check that all adjustments are equal left to right.

Turnbuckles are difficult to adjust.

Clean the threads and use a small amount of lubricant. Make sure you are using the correct turnbuckle wrench.

Turnbuckles bend or break easily.

Ensure that the suspension components are properly maintained, and that the car is not subjected to extreme impacts. Consider upgrading to stronger aftermarket turnbuckles for competition use.
