I have dir years RC-Cars and i have learned some Great new things!
You made a great Video and u got a perfect Modded chassis!
Greetings from Germany
That's brilliant, in its simplicity! I'm going to have to get a big bag of those. Between me and my friend, we have a LOT of ball sockets! Thanks, and I subbed.

Good video, I will definitely try some of these on my tt01
Really good informations! Thanks a lot!
Great Video! Helped me a lot! Thanks!
Shared this video on my facebook page! great video very informative.
With the play in the wheels, you also want to add shims between the two bearings in the hub, and then a cone style spring washer behind the drive pin, I have done this on mine and I have zero play and no binding of the bearings at all.
I used the kit you can get for a Schumacher sst axis2 you can find the manual for this car online and go to the page where it shows you how to assemble the hubs, this is the same as what I have done, for the Tamiya it’s good to get two sets for the shim packs from the sst
added a .3 and a .15 and handles a lot straighter with about 3/4+ throttle on a 9t motor!
Thanks!
Thanks a bunch! my plastic tt01 is loose in every joint possible , some of these fix should help , especially the rubber spacers on ball joints
Well done Sir!
Thanks man that website is awesome!
love it
I like your tips
do u think a yea racing conversion kit
Not sure what your question is, however I only have a few Yeah Racing parts and my Chassis is a 3Racing...
did you car come with all the steel chassis ball joints etc?
I have too much play in my drive shaft, whats the best thing to do about it?
That's a good upgrade Steph. I would like to add my 2 cents, if that's OK....
The 5mm shims from Traxxas have a wider O.D. This I think, will spread the load a little more, and also works as a dust shield for the bearings.... I used one on the front inner and outer bearings of my CC-01.
Also, same Truck(and I believe this is going to be an issue with several Tamiya hubs!), I nearly got rid of the last couple of thousandths of an inch, by putting a few drops of thick oil between the bearings, inside the hub.....
This will of course, require some cleaning for a few days afterwards, because most will seep out. However, enough will stay in the bearings, to take up a good portion of the remaining slack.
...... I DO love Tamiya! They give a retired Auto Mechanic things to keep my mind sharp!! 👍😎😉

Also, those o-rings are a GREAT idea! They're not exactly the o-rings that R/C guys are used to - like the ones in dampers.
It looks more like sponge rubber. And a perfect size! Where can I get some of those?
~ Carmine
They are flat rubber wachers
So where can I get some??? 😲 That really looks effective.
And my oil between the bearings trick.......... does work. 😉
the thick oil does work but like you said it is kind of messy but also causes more drag and more so if it gets into the bearings.
I get those washers from work from stuff they toss. maybe ebay has some.
I wonder if these would work..

I'll check those washers out, thanks! They look like such a good idea.
I also forgot - drag is not something I would notice, going 4-8mph....
I've been out of the racing scene for too long! The oil works for me, but would kill your performance.
Hello. Which suspension arms are you using? Greetings niels
hi love the video. is there many benefits for having the motor at the front than rear??
its a conversion kit by "yeah" which moves the motor forward in prep for drift set up I believe. I've bought it but waiting on delivery.
Carl Potter this conversion does not flip the chassis around. that I did myself. this chassis was just an standard upgrade from stock.
Great video, thank you so much for making it. May I ask what carbon chassis kit that is that you're running and what steering linkage kit that is? Where can I purchase a set up like that? Is it still being manufactured?
This is a 3Racing chassis and some parts too. other parts are GPM and Yeah Racing.
You have to basically get all the parts and do it yourself. The TT01 is normally a mid/rear motor setup.
TheLEDwheel The steering links are GPM for an HPI RS4 and the extensions for the steering knuckles are from an HPI Nitro rush. They were chassis mounting parts.
I also have a TT 01 , but it isn't build as yours . Mine's more stable 4WD and is mostly out of plastic , no metal parts . Should i upgrade some parts to metal? Is Weight reduction that important?
do you have a video on the build of this chassis or a parts list? great video tho!!
Subb'd!!
I don't have a parts list and I am not even sure that chassis is still available. However it and the suspension componenets are 3Racing and GPM.
Does anyone know what the component at 0:55 is called? I've lost two so far, and I need to know what it's called, in order to buy it.
go check the manual if you don't have it you can get it on the tamiya site along with a blown up view of the chassis components
Can i use all the Tuning Parts for my tt-01e ?
+PriimaxHD x I don't see why not.
"Strip your screw hole" woah that sounds painful.
How long does the battery last on this chassis
A vague question at best. It depends on what motor your are running and what capacity your battery is.
How much difference in steering does it make when adding the shims? Is it probably more noticeable with comparative racing?
The steering is more precise therefore handling is increased. When the wheel is loose what happens is the Toe in/out and Caster and camber changes constantly so you never really know what your going to get when to take a corner.
Thanks for the reply. Silly question... do you think shims also help to reduce dust/dirt reaching the ball bearings?
ayske1 I guess its possible but I don't think so. Get some rubber sealed bearings if you concerned with dust.
TheLEDwheel are you using 3 or 4mm shims?
ayske1 5mm
Hi, im gonna buy the Tamiya tt-01D kit, and I wonder, does the graphite plate (chassi) from AsiaTees.com fit it? :) it dont say if it is for the tt-01d too... I just wonder.
You want to buy a stock TT-01 kit and then upgrade the chassis? If you are going to go that route I would suggest buying everything after market and building it PRO right from the start. Also, this is soooo not the best car for drifting. Have a look at the sakura D3 instead. It was bread for drifting and is very affordable. They have them at AsiaTees too. Part number is 3R/KIT-SAKURA-D3
TheLEDwheel This one too 3R/KIT-SAKURA-D3A
Thanks, Is the D3 axek driven or belt?
Rune Solum belt
TheLEDwheel I bought a HPI Pro-D insteead! :)
Deacon Halsey… I cannot reply directly to your comment so here is my answer to your questions. I am guessing you cannot steer when braking? Do you have a locked Diff in the front? That would cause serious steering issues for sticky tires and should only be used for Drifting. A Car using non drift tires absolutely needs the diff to be functional in the front. If its not locked then you may need to use a One Way diff so the braking does not affect the front. Other than that you would need to give me more details. Join use on "theLEDwheel" facebook page.
As for your Motor coming loose I would need more information like is it the stock motor mount? Stock chassis? What lock Tite did you use and did you shake the bottle before using it?
it's a weight distribution thing.. bit more in front this way. works well but not a big advantage.
I use a solid diff on my competition touring car. Works great. You want a locked REAR for drifting.
will the arms from the tt02 fit on the tt01?
+Evan Meyreles Never had one in hand so cannot say.
+TheLEDwheel ok. do you have the link to the video that you mention about how to add the extra screws to help fine tune the front suspension?
+Evan Meyreles th-cam.com/video/jDFx7AhZuHA/w-d-xo.html
+TheLEDwheel Thank you so much. your videos are very helpful
help what pinion gear do i use for this... i have one n dont know help please
check your manual for the part number or your lhs will know.
I just bought the tt01 carbon fiber chassis only n just want to know what you running your pinion gear
+Meelo weedhead Its was a stock gear...19 tooth
How come other people said 24 to 25 i dont get it
I think you need to figure out what is good for you...
is one of the same model 50$ worth?
it is with many upgrades
what are the shims you use ?
5mm 3Racing shim set.
@@TheLEDwheel thank you anything else i need for the rest of the chassis
Maybe this?
th-cam.com/video/jDFx7AhZuHA/w-d-xo.html
Alloy Center prop shaft and steering set.
@@TheLEDwheel thank you i already have them along with most of the other upgrades i just wanted to know how to stiffen things up because there is a lot of play in all of the running gear
and, what rims are those? locks fabulous! :D
Those are Tamiya Truck wheels... check ebay item number 141121423603 or the actual part number is 445516
Thank you :)
TheLEDwheel what tires do you use on those rims?
Those are cheap drift tires... I don't remember where I got them.
All 26mm tires should fit those rims?
i need a good electronics set up for my tt02d please help
Electronics as in Motor and ESC or a Radio system?
You can get a leopard or ZTW combo system at
www.asiatees.com/affiliate?rc_pal=3335313136
Motor and ESC for a drifter I would get something between 3000 and 4000 KV Give or take... I have a 4150 KV in my TT01
For the radio system
I run a simple Fly Sky GT3B.... Its very affordable and works well.
For an easier way to get assistance you can join un on the facebook group.
facebook.com/groups/TheLEDWheel2.0/
not motor but everything a good long lasting battery , nice radio sys and esc and a fast responding servo also how do i get it to look like I'm pulling the ebrake thanks
Erica Clydesdale I use a Fly Sky GT3B Radio. It is very affordable and it works very well. I now have 2 of them and also a GT3C.
Go here www.asiatees.com/affiliate?rc_pal=3335313136
Look for SX/SC-1267SG servo and then install a one way diff in front. When you brake it should lock the rear wheels only making it look like an e-brake.
If you are buying before June 25th I can give you a discount code.
Just ask.
Steph
ok thanks i will look in to them
No, It was upgraded completely.
make the rc car a good to drift
Competitive racing*
I have too much play in my drive shaft, whats the best thing to do about it?
I dhad the same problem. I installed some thin heat shrink on each end to take care of it.
Cool thnks
