it says that they will fit a tl-01. i was going to try a set of stock tl-01 soon as i dig them out. i was wondering the same thing.

well hopefully this helps. i just tryed my stock tl-01 pieces and they will not really work. the tl-01 C carrier is about an 1/8" bigger and the axle sits out to far in the upright piece and will not catch the ball on the end of the main axle shaft quite right. i also tried a tl-01la which is different from a tl-01 and it appears to be almost the same as the stock tlt. a tad bit of filling it would fit. but i have not seen aluminum ones yet. so in short, i would say they DO NOT fit. they would also cut the steering radius a shade. P.S. sorry for the long winded reply |

im sure it could be modified to work though. new driveshafts would be needed. gpm direct parts would be easier though. |

Hi,I was thinking of using them,except for the price! 4u2c's link shows two pairs in blue for about the same as Tower wants.Since I have a M03 and a TLT-1,I'll know soon enough if they work.
