Tamiya 42167 - TRF201 1/10 2WD Tunable Buggy Chassis Kit  [42167]

Overview of the Tamiya 42167 - TRF201 Chassis

The Tamiya 42167 - TRF201 Chassis Kit demonstrates careful development aimed at competitive driving. This 1/10 scale 2WD buggy was refined over an extended design period to improve consistency and response on a variety of surfaces. Racers will appreciate its straightforward setup options and solid construction.

Durable Geartrain and Differential

The gearbox contains a ball differential built around inch-size diff balls and updated thrust ball bearings to reduce wear. A newly profiled diff carrier tooth helps extend service life, and the universal shafts are arranged for dependable power transfer under race loads.

Front Suspension Tuning

The front assembly uses aeration dampers combined with new coil springs to deliver controlled rebound and compression. Front axles accept metric ball bearings for those who prefer that format, while inch-bearing users can reference Item 54220.

Body Shape and Wing Choices

The body has been sculpted to aid downforce management and steering balance. Two wing styles are offered so you can match aero characteristics to different track layouts and grip levels.

Chassis Strength and Weight Balance

Constructed from fiberglass-reinforced nylon resin, the chassis provides a robust yet lightweight base. Battery placement along the length and a tuned rear section help lower the center of gravity and improve roll characteristics.

For enthusiasts who like to tweak setup and learn from changes, the TRF201 is a resilient and flexible chassis worth adding to a race fleet.
