Refine Front Drivetrain Performance with Tamiya 42283

The Tamiya 42283 Front Double Cardan Drive Shaft is built to tighten your buggy's drivetrain response. It cuts rotational vibration to keep power delivery steady over rough ground, and helps the front end stay controlled when you hit bumps or push through a corner. This front shaft is compatible with DB01, DB02, TRF503, and TRF502X setups.

Why the Double Cardan Layout Matters

The double cardan joint design reduces speed-induced vibration and preserves consistent torque to the wheels, giving a more predictable steering feel at pace. Its tough alloy construction is aimed at longevity, suitable for club racing or weekend bashing alike.

Specifications

  • Compatibility: DB01, DB02, TRF503, TRF502X
  • Part Type: Double Cardan Drive Shaft
  • Position: Front
  • Material: High-strength alloy

For drivers wanting reduced vibration and a smoother transfer of power to the front axle, the Tamiya 42283 is a practical and durable upgrade for your buggy.

Yes. The shaft is designed to fit DB01 and DB02 platforms as well as TRF503 and TRF502X without major modifications. Check your axle clips and set screw positions during installation.
Expect lower rotational vibration at the front end, which translates to steadier steering input and improved traction during high-speed sections and on uneven surfaces.
Keep the joints free of grit and periodically inspect the alloy for nicks. Lightly grease the moving surfaces and check fasteners after a few runs to retain smooth operation.
