Performance front C hub for GB-01/GB-02 applications

Designed as a durable aluminium replacement for the front C hub position on Tamiya GB-01 and GB-02 chassis, this light blue hub improves front-end stiffness and provides consistent mounting geometry for tuning. The metal construction reduces flex compared with standard plastic hubs while keeping factory fitment priorities in mind.

Check compatibility with GB-01 and GB-02 variants before installation; measure bolt patterns and confirm clearance around the knuckle and suspension arm. Minor kit revisions can affect the exact interface, so verification is recommended.

Installation is typically straightforward as a direct swap into the existing front C hub location, though confirm included hardware with your supplier. From a setup perspective, expect firmer steering feel and adjust toe and camber settings as required to optimise handling for competition or detailed tuning work.

What inspection should I do before fitting?

Verify hole centres and hub thickness against the original part; confirm there is sufficient clearance for brake and steering linkages to avoid interference during full lock.

Does the aluminium hub need special maintenance?

Inspect mounting screws and anodised finish periodically for wear or loosening; apply thread locker where appropriate and torque hardware to recommended values.

Will this part support competition tuning?

Yes, the reduced compliance from aluminium helps deliver more predictable steering inputs under load, which is useful for fine tuning steering rates and suspension response in a competitive setup.
