Tamiya 4005031 - T-Bar replacement for F1 chassis linkage  [4005031]

T-Bar replacement for F1 linkage

This RC-scale T-bar is offered as a direct replacement spare for affected F1-style Tamiya assemblies and is intended for repairs and setup work on compatible chassis codes. The item matches the reference numbering listed with the part and is intended to restore factory steering linkage geometry without altering the original layout.

Compatibility is indicated by the code group 58174/118/114/109 included in the part title, so confirm the part code on your vehicle before installation. The component functions as a rigid link in the front steering assembly and is used during routine maintenance and setup to ensure repeatable steering response and alignment.

Installation notes focus on fit and alignment rather than modification. Inspect mating ends for wear or deformation and replace any damaged fasteners or connectors to retain proper steering geometry. During setup, use the part to re-establish measured linkage lengths and to check that steering centering returns to expected positions after travel.

For storage and handling, keep the T-bar free of grit and corrosion and verify threads or attachment points before reuse to avoid introducing play into the steering system. This description applies to RC-scale vehicles only and not to full-size applications.
