Optimise Chassis Compliance on the TRF420

The Tamiya 42349 TRF420 Carbon Upper Deck is created to give the TRF420 chassis a controlled increase in flexibility. At 1.75mm thick this carbon plate is thinner than the original fitment, helping the car adapt on high-traction surfaces where subtle flex aids stability.

Improved Rotation on High-Traction Surfaces

Produced from carbon fibre at 1.75mm, this deck is 0.25mm thinner than the kit component. That reduced thickness boosts chassis flex, which can assist with roll control and maintain tyre contact through tighter corners.

Compatibility and Setup Notes

Specifically designed for TRF420 installation, this upper deck works well when matched with the aluminium lower deck (Item 42350). Use alongside considered damper and spring settings to fine-tune responsiveness without sacrificing predictability.

If tuned correctly, the extra flex can improve corner speed by allowing smoother weight transfer. Expect to adjust suspension to extract time gains.
You can, but pairing with the aluminium lower deck (Item 42350) is recommended for a more balanced feel and better response under braking and corner entry.
Check screw torque and inspect edges and hole areas after hard sessions. Replace the deck if hairline cracks appear to avoid sudden failure.
