3Racing TA05-08/V2/LB Aluminium Steering Saver Technical Upgrade  [TA05-08/V2/LB]

Technical Steering Saver Upgrade for TA05 Platforms

The 3Racing TA05-08/V2/LB is a version 2 aluminium steering saver designed as a direct replacement for the factory plastic unit on Tamiya TA05 platforms. It provides a more rigid interface in the steering linkage to improve repeatable geometry under dynamic load.

Engineering Benefits for Setup and Tuning

Machined aluminium construction reduces elastic deformation compared with polymer parts, allowing finer steering calibration and more predictable toe and ackermann response. The light blue finish aids visibility during setup checks while offering surface protection.

Fitment Notes for Competitive Use

Installation follows standard steering assembly procedures and requires no specialist tools beyond common RC maintenance gear. Once installed, the unit reduces play in the steering system and stabilises input response, which helps drivers dial in suspension and steering balance more effectively.

How it Helps Lap Consistency

By limiting unwanted movement in the steering train, the 3Racing saver maintains alignment through heavy cornering and rapid transitions. This consistent behaviour makes iterative setup adjustments more reliable and supports competitive driving where small gains translate to lap-time improvements.
