Steel Direct Cups to Strengthen the TRF420

The Tamiya 54934 steel front direct cups are intended to replace the aluminium originals on the TRF420, providing stronger hardware and increased front-end weight. They are suited to users looking to alter balance and improve crash resilience.

Key Advantages of Steel Front Cups

Using steel direct cups raises the front mass and enhances durability, which can improve stability and broaden tuning options for different layouts. The tougher construction helps the car cope with heavier impacts and prolonged use.

Compatibility with TRF420 Front Direct Pulley

These steel cups are compatible with the TRF420 chassis and models fitted with the TRF420 Front Direct Pulley (37T). They are a direct replacement and a straightforward way to test the effects of extra front weight on handling.

Yes, the steel cups are robust and well suited to regular club racing where impacts and close contact occur. They reduce the chance of cup failure compared to aluminium in high-stress situations.
Adding weight up front can alter corner entry and mid-corner behaviour. Expect a shift in balance that may require small adjustments to camber, toe or shock settings to regain your preferred feel.
After fitting, inspect mounting surfaces, fastener torque and nearby bearings. Run the car gently at first to confirm there are no unusual noises or binding before full-speed running.
