GPM Racing 7075 Alloy Front Caster Blocks for Traxxas 1/6 Funco Pro Scale 2WD Sand Car 8S-109076-4 (TPS019)

7075-T6 CNC machined front caster blocks for TRAXXAS Funco Pro

This aftermarket front caster block is engineered for the TRAXXAS FUNCO PRO SCALE 2WD SAND CAR platform as a direct upgrade to the OEM plastic caster. Manufactured from aviation-grade 7075-T6 aluminium using precision machining, the component reduces front-end compliance, stabilises the CVD interface and preserves steering geometry under dynamic loading. The anodised finish provides surface protection suitable for coastal and desert environments.

Installation follows conventional front-end service procedures and is suitable for modellers with experience in suspension and steering work. The assembly ships pre-assembled; inspect fitment prior to final torque and apply thread-locker to the retaining screws to guard against vibration-induced loosening. Functionally, the increased stiffness in the knuckle area reduces change in toe and caster, yielding more repeatable steering across varied terrain.

Use the TPS019 7075-T6 caster block where reduced knuckle deflection and consistent steering geometry are required for high-speed sand running or heavy-load conditions.

What tolerances are critical during installation?

Ensure the mating faces are clean and that the CVD clearance is within original specification; minimal lateral play at the knuckle is required to preserve steering geometry.

Is thread-locker mandatory?

Thread-locker is recommended on retaining screws to maintain clamp load under vibration; use a medium-strength product suitable for aluminium fasteners.

Will anodising alter clearance or fit?

Anodising adds minimal build-up; parts are finished to standard service tolerances but verify clearances if running close-fit aftermarket shafts or hubs.

What maintenance is recommended for longevity?

Regularly inspect fasteners and mating surfaces after hard use, clean salt and grit from anodised surfaces, and reapply thread-locker when reassembling. Write Product Review Please sign in your account before you can write any review. Sign In Close
