This aluminium front and rear damper set is a precision-oriented upgrade for the TAMIYA DB01 chassis, supplied under part DB01-01/LB. The machined aluminium bodies provide a stiffer mounting interface and simplify damper disassembly for iterative setup work.
The component is intended to enhance serviceability and thermal consistency rather than alter the DB01 suspension geometry. Standard springs and internals are compatible, and the aluminium housings permit rapid piston and oil swaps for fine tuning damping rates.
Workshop notes: verify correct thread engagement on all end fittings, inspect seals before pressurising with oil, and maintain original mounting orientation to preserve handling. Scheduled cleaning and oil changes will optimise damper response during extended testing.
For tuners using the DB01 platform, the DB01-01/LB aluminium bodies deliver a robust, serviceable option that supports piston and oil experimentation within the original shock architecture.
