Precision carbon and aluminium sub chassis for TA08 PRO

This aftermarket sub chassis assembly is a purpose-engineered replacement for the TAMIYA TA08 PRO platform. The configuration uses a 3mm carbon fibre upper deck paired with aluminium sub components to control chassis flex and ensure consistent belt routing at the graphite sub chassis position.

The package contains CNC-friendly aluminium parts and a matched hardware set to replace OEM sub chassis locations on TA08 PRO layouts. Front and rear adjustable belt wheels permit incremental belt tension and lateral alignment adjustments, enabling fine setup changes without swapping pulley hardware. Install the supplied stainless fasteners into the original mounting points to maintain baseline geometry while evaluating tuning variations.

For technical builders wanting a stiffer carbon upper deck combined with aluminium lower components and a complete fastener set, this GPM kit supplies the parts to replace stock sub chassis positions and to refine belt alignment and chassis rigidity.

Will the aluminium parts increase torsional stiffness?

Yes. The aluminium sub components combined with a 3mm carbon deck reduce flex in targeted areas, improving torsional consistency under load.

How should I set initial belt tension?

Start with a moderate tension that removes slack without overloading bearings, then run test laps and make small incremental adjustments using the adjustable belt wheels until drivetrain noise and backlash are minimised.

Are the included bearings sealed or open?

The kit supplies edge bearings as listed in the specifications; inspect and lubricate them during assembly according to your preferred maintenance schedule.
