Precision Lower deck upgrade for TRF201 platforms

The Tamiya 42253 Aluminum Lower Deck Set is a carefully made upgrade for TRF201 XR and DN-01 chassis. It converts the buggy to a long wheelbase layout to improve stability and reduce unwanted contact during fast cornering. This part is aimed at racers seeking predictable handling on rough club circuits.

Stability that makes a difference

Extending the wheelbase by 11mm helps steady the car over bumps and high-speed sections. The hard anodized aluminum resists wear from everyday track abuse, while the included resin side guards add impact resistance for tougher runs.

Battery placement and fit

The deck is laid out to accept both rectangular-shaped and separate-type battery packs, giving you options to tune weight spread and balance to suit different track layouts and driving styles.

Specifications

  • Wheelbase Extension: 11mm
  • Material: Aluminum with hard anodized coating
  • Compatibility: TRF201 XR, DN-01
  • Battery Type: Rectangular-shaped and separate-type

The Tamiya 42253 Aluminum Lower Deck Set is a practical upgrade for hobbyists wanting a stiffer, more stable TRF201 or DN-01 chassis without compromising battery options.

You will notice improved straight line stability and reduced pitching in fast corners, which makes the car more predictable when carrying speed over rough sections.
No special chassis modifications are required beyond standard fitting; the set is designed to mount cleanly to TRF201 XR and DN-01 frames using existing mounting points.
Rectangular packs tend to centralize weight, but separate-type packs can be shifted for fine balance tweaks; test both to see which suits the track and your setup style.
