This front suspension set is a scale RC hop-up part produced for use on the Tamiya F104 chassis, supplied under 3Racing part number F104-17. The write-up focuses on fitment, installation considerations, and the role the component plays in front-end tuning without asserting unverified material or dimensional details.
Compatibility: the assembly is intended to interface with standard Tamiya F104 front mounting points and steering link geometry. When replacing the stock front assembly, confirm the steering knuckles, hubs, and any transfer of existing bearings or rods match the F104 layout before final assembly.
Installation notes: this set mounts to the F104 front bulkhead and connects with the existing steering assembly; installers should remove the original front components and transfer any serviceable parts such as turnbuckles or bearings as required. Follow the chassis manual for torque and alignment references to avoid over-tightening fasteners and to preserve the intended range of motion.
Tuning role: use the front suspension set as a modular element in front-end setup changes. It allows the builder to re-establish steering geometry and front suspension characteristics when experimenting with shock length, spring rates, or anti-roll bar settings on a 1/10 scale on-road F104 platform. Expect adjustments to affect turn-in, mid-corner balance, and weight transfer behavior at the front axle.
