This aluminium oil damper set is a direct-fit replacement for TAMIYA TT-01 and TT-01 TYPE E 1/10 on-road chassis, catalogued as TT01-14/LB. The design replaces basic plastic or stamped-metal shocks with machined aluminium bodies and oil damping, providing a more consistent damping curve and firmer control for lap-focused setup work.
These dampers are intended as a tunable suspension element: change shock oil viscosity and spring rate independently to tune compression and rebound characteristics. Proper selection of oil and springs will influence pitch and roll behaviour, transient response and bump compliance to suit circuit conditions and driving style.
Installation follows standard 1/10 procedures: remove stock units, transplant compatible springs where appropriate, and mount the aluminium dampers to existing shock towers and suspension arms. Maintenance focuses on seal inspection, oil level checks and periodic oil replacement to preserve consistent damper performance during repeated track use.
Use TT01-14/LB as part of a methodical setup routine, testing oil grades and spring combinations to achieve consistent lap-to-lap handling for club or competitive runs.
