Upper deck upgrade for the D6 chassis

The SAK-D6811/BU is an aluminum upper deck made specifically for the Auper D6 touring car chassis. Finished in blue anodize, this plate replaces the factory plastic deck to offer greater rigidity for mounting electronics and suspension links. The text below outlines fitment, installation advice, and how the part influences chassis setup and handling.

This upper deck is intended for the Auper D6 chassis family, locating between the shock towers and the servo area. To install, remove the stock upper deck and reuse chassis fasteners where suitable; verify screw engagement and lengths during assembly. Because this is a load-bearing item, confirm body mounts, the radio tray, and nearby components clear the plate before final tightening.

On the setup side, a more rigid top plate changes torsional stiffness. You may notice differences in balance and roll characteristics versus the original deck; small adjustments to shock oil, spring rates, or anti-roll bars will help re-establish the handling you prefer. The anodized blue surface is mainly cosmetic while also resisting corrosion in everyday use.

For Auper D6 users wanting a firmer top plate and a robust anodized finish, this aluminum deck is a direct replacement; always check fit and handling during setup adjustments.

The anodize adds surface hardness and abrasion resistance, but heavy impacts can still chip the coating. Small blemishes do not affect structural integrity; replace the plate if the aluminum itself is deformed.
Aluminum is significantly stiffer than the original plastic deck. It will resist normal loads but can bend or crack under severe impact; inspect after hard crashes and replace if damaged.
Minor surface scratches can be smoothed and protected, but deep gouges or bends usually require replacing the deck to maintain safe fitment and alignment.
Anodizing improves corrosion resistance compared with bare aluminum, but after exposure to salt spray rinse and dry the part and inspect for wear to extend life.
Regularly check fasteners for tightness, scan for cracks at mounting points, and keep the anodized finish clean to spot any early signs of wear.
