This is an aftermarket rear upper tie rod designed for RC-scale use on the Tamiya TT02B platform. The centre section is spring steel while each end uses a plastic ball-end to interface with existing suspension link points, providing a balance between strength and lightweight connection points.
Installation is performed by removing the stock tie rod and swapping this unit into the same attachment points on the rear bulkhead and suspension mounts. After fitment, verify rear toe settings and check for free movement through the suspension travel; minor toe adjustments can be made by rotating the adjustable rod section if present on your chassis.
In tuning terms this part is intended to provide a stiffer link compared with common all-plastic rods, helping keep rear toe consistent under braking and cornering loads on 1/10 scale touring setups. Use it as a direct replacement or as part of a stepwise upgrade path when refining rear-end handling.
