Precision 257mm Wheelbase Option for Tamiya M05

The 3RACING M05-31/LB provides a fixed 257mm wheelbase for the Tamiya M05 chassis to yield a more consistent handling baseline. This kit is intended for drivers who prioritise predictable high speed behaviour and repeatable setup testing.

Chassis Response and Tuning Impact

Lengthening the wheelbase alters dynamic roll and pitch characteristics, which can stabilise corner exit and reduce mid-corner oversteer. Use the extension to evaluate changes to anti-roll bars, shock tuning and weight distribution in a comparative testing programme.

Fitment and Practical Setup Notes

The components are arranged to work with the M05 mounting layout, allowing quick installation and comparative trials. After fitting the M05-31/LB, verify battery and servo positions and re-evaluate damping and spring rates to optimise handling for your track conditions.

What setup areas change most with the M05-31/LB?

Primary changes are in weight transfer and roll characteristics, so focus on spring rates, damper settings and anti-roll bar stiffness when reworking the setup.

Can I use the same shock packages after fitting?

Existing shocks can be reused, but expect to alter oil weight and stroke tuning to match the changed motion ratios and desired roll speed.

Is the extension suitable for competitive setup work?

Yes, the M05-31/LB is suited to comparative testing aimed at refining handling balance and consistency across different tracks and surface conditions.
