Product Description
The Ampro Omega Rear Suspension is the ultimate upgrade for the Tamiya Hornet & Grasshopper. Though a major operation, the kit will leave you with a Hornet that can handle! Please note that the parts you get here need to be accompanied with the following parts to complete the set. You will also need a number of additional parts available at your hobby shop and eBay. Stock rear wheels will no longer work. Hex drive wheels, 2.2” should work but not all can be tested. Ampro makes a set for the Omega rear end.
****Note that significant modifications are needed if you run a Grasshopper body. ****
This is the 045018-00 Omega Arms. 045018-01 Is availible if you want to add a sway bar.
