RE: part compability?
Your best bet is to measure the distance between the mounting holes, both up/ down and L/R, and write that down in mm. Then call TamiyaUSA in California, ask for tech support, and see if that part can fit.
Aside from that, the front dampers mounting position may change a bit on the stay itself. Even if the part doesn't line up, you can make your own drill hole pattern and base it off the centerline of the replacement part.
