This aluminum front C-hub is designed as a direct replacement part for TAMIYA Thunder Shot, Thunder Dragon, Fire Dragon and Terra Scorcher 1/10-scale buggies. The machined aluminum piece replaces the stock plastic hub to give a firmer steering mounting point and more consistent response during setup and play.
Fitment and role: the part installs in the stock steering knuckle area and serves as the forward pivot for the front suspension, affecting toe and steering geometry when used alongside your existing arms and knuckles. It is intended for RC-scale use only and matches the original mounting footprint for straightforward swap-in installation.
Installation notes: use the vehicle’s existing fasteners and take care to confirm alignment before tightening to avoid binding the steering. A light thread locker may be applied to metal-to-metal fasteners if you routinely run on rough tracks. Check steering freeplay and trim linkages after fitting to restore desired handling.
Tuning impact: upgrading to an aluminum C-hub helps maintain alignment under load and can make front-end behavior feel more precise, which is useful when dialing in steering sensitivity or when running stiffer springs and higher-damping setups.
