SSG Carbon Upper Deck Designed for TA04 Setup Work

The Tamiya 53605 - SSG Carbon Fiber Upper Deck for TA04 Chassis pairs woven graphite with an aluminum fiber layer to raise the upper deck rigidity on the TA04. This upgrade helps reduce unwanted chassis movement and gives a firmer platform for suspension tuning and balance adjustments.

Key reasons to fit the SSG upper deck

Material: Durable woven graphite keeps the weight low while increasing strength across the chassis crown.
Coating: The aluminum fiber sheet improves stiffness and offers more predictable setup options for handling refinement.
Compatibility: Specifically manufactured for the Tamiya TA04 chassis to ensure correct fit and hole placement.

Contents of the Kit

Instruction sheet

Will the upper deck make the TA04 too stiff for club racing?

The deck raises stiffness but does not make the chassis unusable; it simply changes the tuning baseline. Most drivers compensate by adjusting springs or damping to retain desired balance for club tracks.

Is any special maintenance needed for the carbon plate?

Inspect for damage after heavy impacts and ensure screws remain secure. Clean the surface gently and avoid solvents that could affect bonded areas.

Can this deck be combined with chassis braces and shock towers?

Yes, the deck is compatible with common TA04 braces and towers. Check for interference during trial assembly and tighten fittings incrementally to maintain correct geometry.
