Tamiya 42317 TRF419XR Conversion Kit - Alloy Upgrade Pack  [42317]

Turn a TRF419X into a precision TRF419XR race chassis

For hobbyists wanting greater control, the 42317 TRF419XR Conversion Kit upgrades a Tamiya TRF419X to the TRF419XR layout. The conversion focuses on improved steering response and a more consistent feel through corners.

Updated chassis components and benefits

The kit supplies updated parts that refine stiffness and feedback. It includes a 2.25mm carbon fibre lower deck and a 2mm carbon fibre upper deck for a light but stiff base. Adding a centre pitch stiffener reduces unwanted twist and helps the car rotate cleaner into corners.

Precision aluminium parts for stability

Key aluminium parts increase strength at crucial junctions. Included motor mounts, front and rear lower bulkheads, and servo mounts are machined to reduce flex and make the car react more predictably under load. These parts help the setup hold its tune over a race run.

Adjustability to suit different layouts

The conversion adds tuning options that let drivers match handling to various surfaces. Front and rear stabilisers allow changes to roll behaviour and steering feel, giving racers the freedom to prioritise grip or steering agility depending on the venue.

The Tamiya 42317 TRF419XR Conversion Kit is aimed at drivers who want a stiffer, more tunable touring car. It provides durable metal parts and carbon decks to support precise setup work.
