Aluminum Upper Bumper for TT-02

This is an RC-scale aluminum upper bumper designed for the Tamiya TT-02 chassis, offered by 3Racing as model TT02-04. It serves as a metal replacement for the stock upper bumper, intended to provide a firmer mounting point and improved durability during routine running and adjustment sessions.

Installation is straightforward for hobbyists familiar with TT-02 repairs: remove the original plastic upper bumper, retain or reuse the existing mounting hardware where compatible, and fit the aluminum part into the same mounting locations. Check alignment and clearance around the front suspension and steering linkages after fitting, and retorque screws to avoid loosening during use.

Functionally, the aluminum upper bumper is used as a tuning and durability item rather than a performance upgrade: it helps maintain consistent mounting geometry for the front end, assists in chassis rigidity management during setup changes, and offers a more durable option when swapping bodies or testing different bump settings on-track or during practice.
