Technical overview of M4WD-01/GO 2mm gold spacers

The M4WD-01/GO 2mm spacer kit is specified for Tamiya Mini 4WD applications as a compact axle spacing and wheel offset accessory. Each spacer has a uniform 2mm thickness and a gold finish, intended to enable precise lateral adjustments in competitive setup work.

Fitment guidance prioritises dimensional checks: confirm axle diameter and the bearing or bushing inner dimension before installation. Consistent spacer thickness allows predictable changes to wheel face alignment, minimises side-to-side play, and maintains repeatable clearance to rollers and chassis contact points. The finish is primarily cosmetic but aids in visual setup identification.

For racers and tuners, these spacers simplify controlled offset changes when testing setups or swapping components. For display builds, the gold tone provides a coordinated trim option. This component is an accessory and does not alter the base kit structure.

What tolerance should I expect on the 2mm thickness?

Expect nominal 2mm thickness per spacer; check with calipers if exact stack height is critical for your setup.

How do these spacers interact with bearing versus bushing systems?

Bearings require correct bore clearance for free rotation, while bushings need a press or slip fit. Verify inner diameters to avoid axial play or binding after spacer installation.

Can I use these spacers to tune wheel camber or toe?

Spacers adjust lateral wheel offset rather than camber or toe. Use them to correct wheel face alignment and lateral clearance, then adjust other suspension or roller positions for handling changes.

Recommended practice for repeatable setup changes?

Label spacer stacks and record stack heights per axle. Use identical spacer arrangements left and right when aiming for symmetric setups.

Does the finish affect fit or performance?

The gold finish is decorative; any performance impact depends on spacer mass relative to the wheel assembly. Confirm fit and function on test runs.
