Refine Your TA05 v.II with Carbon K Parts

Installing Carbon Reinforced K Parts is a popular way to increase the structural performance of a Tamiya 54196 TA05 v.II. Replacing the original fibreglass items with carbon components enhances stiffness while often trimming unnecessary weight, which can stabilise the chassis during cornering.

Consistent Handling and Increased Rigidity

These carbon pieces link the steering arms and linkages more rigidly, producing steadier steering inputs and improved stability at high speed. The addition of front and rear braces further reduces chassis flex for a repeatable feel on each lap.

Damper Stay Versatility for Setup Work

Damper stays included in the package allow for different shock mounting points, giving drivers more room to experiment with roll and dive control for specific track conditions.

They are produced for the TA05 v.II architecture and are unlikely to be a direct fit on other TA05 derivatives without modification.
A stiffer chassis can alter weight transfer and tyre load patterns, which may change wear and balance; adjust suspension settings to compensate as needed.
After fitting, recheck tracking and ride height, then make conservative suspension tweaks to find the new baseline before aggressive changes.
Inspect existing screws and replace any that are stripped or corroded; using correct length screws prevents crushing the carbon or creating stress points.
Visually inspect for cracks or delamination and run your fingers along mating surfaces for rough spots; replace parts that show structural compromise.
