Aluminium Rear Hub Carrier Upgrade for Inferno MP9 TKI4 Kyosho IF490

The Kyosho IF490 Aluminium Rear Hub Carrier is a sensible bolt-on upgrade for those running the Kyosho Inferno MP9 TKI4. Its metal construction improves robustness compared with stock plastic parts and helps reduce wear under heavy track use.

Durability Gains from Metal Parts

Swapping to aluminium reduces the risk of cracked carriers during hard landings and rough track sections. The IF490 gives a tougher rear assembly that stands up to repeated impacts and high stress racing conditions.

Consistent Geometry for Better Handling

Because the IF490 holds suspension pins more rigidly, your rear toe and camber remain steadier during cornering. That consistency helps drivers tune handling with more confidence lap after lap.

Simple Installation on MP9 TKI4

Made to match the Inferno MP9 TKI4 mounting points, the IF490 fits without custom machining, letting you upgrade quickly between sessions.
Remark :
Due to limited stock availability, please notice that some Kyosho items may have to order from the factory and the ready time is around 4-6 weeks. Customer purchases the item is assumed to accept the waiting time which allows us to order directly from the manufacturer if the item is out of our warehouse.

Can I use the IF490 on older MP9 versions?

The IF490 is tailored for the TKI4 layout; older MP9 variants may require measurement and possible adjustments before fitting.

Does the aluminium part add weight to the car?

Aluminium is heavier than plastic, but the trade-off is increased strength and repeatable geometry that many drivers prefer for racing setups.

What fasteners are recommended when fitting the IF490?

Use the original hardware if in good condition or stainless steel screws of the same size. Avoid overtightening to prevent thread damage in aluminium.

Will this change affect suspension tuning?

Yes, the stiffer rear end from the IF490 can alter handling balance, so expect to make small adjustments to shock tuning or toe settings.
