Performance-focused aluminium damper bodies for GB-01

The aluminium front and rear damper set is produced for the Tamiya GB-01 chassis and carries model number GB-06/LB. It replaces OEM plastic shock bodies with machined aluminium units finished in light blue anodizing to deliver improved serviceability and consistent attachment points for GB-01 suspension setups.

Intended as a tuning and maintenance upgrade, the parts provide a metal alternative that reduces wear during frequent disassembly and preserves alignment for common GB-01 shock shafts and springs. Use on compatible RC models only.

Assembly notes for technicians: require basic tools such as hex drivers and a small wrench for shock caps. Remove original shocks from GB-01 lower arms and shock towers, transfer springs, shafts and internals where applicable, then install the aluminium bodies maintaining original orientation. Verify thread engagement and apply threadlocker to metal fasteners where required by the build.

Specifications

  • Item Aluminium front and rear damper set
  • Material Aluminium (anodized light blue)
  • Model Number GB-06/LB
  • Compatibility Tamiya GB-01 chassis

Use this kit for consistent, service-friendly shock bodies when frequent teardown or precise setup repeatability is required; confirm shaft and spring dimensions against GB-01 components before final installation.

What tolerances should I check for fitment?

Check shock shaft diameter, retained length and spring inner diameter against the aluminium bodies. Ensuring these tolerances match prevents binding and preserves intended travel.

Are threadlock and torque recommendations different for aluminium bodies?

Use a medium-strength threadlocker on metal-to-metal fasteners if your setup requires vibration resistance. Torque should be light to moderate to avoid stripping small fastener threads; follow standard RC assembly practice.

Can I use existing pistons and seals from GB-01 shocks?

Yes, transfer compatible internal pistons and seals from your GB-01 assemblies. Inspect seals for wear and replace if necessary to maintain damping performance.
