Upgrade driveline smoothness using the Tamiya 42239 42mm shaft

The Tamiya 42239 Double Cardan Joint Shaft is built for hobbyists aiming to refine vehicle response. At 42mm, these shafts are intended to lower rotational shudder so throttle inputs and corner transitions feel more controlled. They are an effective tweak for tuners wanting more suspension articulation on compatible Tamiya touring cars.

Benefits and key points

Length: 42mm precision length to suit standard universal drive setups.
Functionality: Dual cardan joints work to dampen rotational vibration for steadier drive behaviour.
Compatibility: Designed for compatibility with multiple Tamiya touring car platforms.

Always helpfull

Can I retrofit these to older Tamiya kits?

You can fit them to many older kits, but verify the drive shaft length and joint spacing on your specific model before buying.

Will they change handling character?

By reducing rotational vibration, these shafts can give crisper steering feedback and more predictable suspension movement in corners.

Are special lubricants required?

Standard light greases used for metal-on-plastic joints are suitable; avoid heavy oils that can attract dirt and grit.

Do these shafts need balancing?

They generally do not need balancing out of the box, but check for runout after fitting and replace if any wobble appears.
