Enhance TRF417 Chassis Stiffness with a Precision Plate

The Tamiya 42233 TRF417X Upper Deck, cut to a 2.25mm thickness, is a direct-fit component intended to alter chassis stiffness for crisper handling. It is suitable for model racers adjusting torsional characteristics for better track performance.

Improved Corner Control

Fitting this thicker deck yields increased torsional rigidity, which helps reduce chassis twist during cornering and produces steadier mid-corner balance. That promotes more confident steering inputs at speed.

Compatibility and Quick Fit

Specifically produced for the TRF417 line, the deck lines up with factory mount points for straightforward installation. The swap is simple and reversible, allowing quick comparisons during set-up changes.

Yes, the 42233 deck is designed for track use and helps drivers refine handling; you may need to adjust other set-up items to suit different surfaces.
Often minor damper or anti-roll bar adjustments are beneficial after increasing deck stiffness to retain traction and maintain balance through corners.
Yes, because the Tamiya 42233 uses standard mounting points, you can swap decks quickly to compare handling differences and decide which thickness suits your driving style.
