54887 Tamiya TRF420 Toe Control Rear Suspension Set

Aim for optimum toe angle at all times on your TRF420 chassis by fitting it with this brand-new rear suspension set, which allows rear toe to change as you corner! Toe can have a significant effect on the performance of your car. Toe-in (wheels angled inwards) emphasizes straight line driving, while toe- out (wheels angled outward) focusses on performance through corners.

Set Information:

The components in this set are for use in place of TRF420 kit-standard rear uprights.

They work by allowing rear toe angle to change dynamically as your car navigates a corner - it is caused to do so by the turnbuckle, which is moved as the suspension arm rises and falls when the car turns.

Aluminum caster blocks ensure that the suspension has the durability to withstand changes in toe while the car is moving.

Spacers can be used to change the turnbuckle shaft angle, and therefore the base toe angle.

Pro-Tip: More rear toe equals straight line stability and corner stability. However, straight line maximum speed is slightly sacrificed. Less rear toe equals a car that will rotate around a corner faster and more nimbly, but you sacrifice stability. The use of this set up will allow you to fine tune a balance of the best of both worlds.
