Tamiya M03/M03M/M03L/M04L/M04M Aluminum Damper Set by 3Racing M03M-13/LB  [M03M-13/LB]

Aluminum damper set for Tamiya M03/M04 series

This aluminum damper set is a metal replacement intended for the Tamiya M03 and M04 family of 1/10 scale touring car chassis. Constructed from anodized aluminum in light blue, the set is intended to replace standard plastic or basic metal dampers and to serve as a durable option for routine track use and setup work.

The components are designed to fit the shock mounts, ball ends, and spring retainers used on the M03, M03M, M03L, M04L, and M04M chassis without requiring body or suspension geometry changes. Installation follows standard shock swap procedures: remove stock dampers, transfer springs and any shock hardware if compatible, then mount the aluminum units using the original screws and shock pins.

Tuning role and practical notes: these aluminum dampers change the feel primarily by offering a rigid housing and predictable external dimensions, which can affect heat transfer and mounting stability. When tuning, check oil viscosity, spring rate, preload and ride height as normal; the damper bodies themselves do not change recommended oil classes but can make setup responses more repeatable. Use common RC shock maintenance practices: inspect seals, confirm piston and shaft condition, and verify thread engagement on spring collars during setup.
