The just say that when they are out-of-stock. I've seen it several times. Sometimes they say "Temporarily out of Stock" and other times they say "Discontinued"...

Hi,
simply buy enough 49493 and calculate: Price of the whole coupling divided through 2 and you will have the price for a pair of black outdrives + some parts for the trash (at the moment this is my only way to get them).

MR Spool outdrive part number
Hi there,
I am looking for the part number of the white delrin spool outdrives of the 415 MR edition, since it looks that they fit on the 416 spool and are less prone to kink than the black original ones.
thanks in advance

new 416
hi guys
im looking to buy a trf 416, however it looks like many places are running low on stock and dont seem to be replacing them. i see on tamiya america that they say discontinued, i have read on this thread somewhere that could just mean outta stock...my question is? does anyone know for sure if a newer version is on the way ? i dont want to buy one of the last remaining few to find that a new one is released in a month or so..made that mistake with the 415 msx....

On Power 360
Hi there,
last weekend I race the first time with my 416 on the long arms (original) version and with the "out-of-the-box" setup
Only the Ackermann to be 3mm, 50wt oil up front with 3 holes
45wt oil at the rear with the 3 holes.
MMore tires and LRP asphalt additive
on a big track with low/medium asphalt track.
The problem I had was that the tires were doing well but when I jump on the throtlle it made the rear come to the front lol on a classic 360 - like if it was driving on ice....
I was using a 3,5T speed passion speedo and motor (8,0 ratio)
I tried to solve it by doing the diff and by using very low punch on the software, but it only made it happen ...later , mean not in the first 3 laps but like in lap 5 or 6 out of 15 laps.
Perhaps somebody has one hint or clue that would like to share, since the TRF 416 is brand new to me.
thanks in advance

The track condition in my home town is very sandy, so we are all using spools on our cars.
My question is, would the short or long arms be better on a sandy track? Can anyone help or recommend a set up please.

RE : The delrin outdrives from 415 series.
Last night I tried the after market metal outdrives from 415MRE on the 416 with 416 spool bearing holders. The 415MRE outdrives is a tad wider. As a result it cannot fit between the bulkheads.
I am not sure if the bearing holders from the 416 spool is any different with the stock ones.
A friend at the track tried to use the 415 delrin outdrive on his 416 spool and discovered that the difference of the black out drives from the 416 spool compared to a 415 delrin out drive is that the black ones is about .5mm longer. As such the blue aluminium tube will not lock in as with the black out drive whcih can be fixed easily. The main thing is, if it can fit between the bulkheads.
Can anyone confirm if the 9804268 (for 415MSX) can be used in a 416?

stick with short arms and use the inner hole for all your camber links. I'd also use hole 1 on the front arms and 2 on the rear and lay the shocks down 1-2 holes from kit

(settling rear suspension?)
adding more front droop will stick the rear down when you get on the throttle. For asphalt I always use the inner hole on the rear bulkhead for the upper camber link... this is also the change to make if the car is breaking rear traction on corner entry

What if you remove all shims from the rear blocks, will that settle the rearend also?

So when you say the inner hole the rear bulkhead are you lengthening or shortening the camber link itself? More front droop does settle the rear down but you may loose some overall steering?

hey all. just finished changing my car to the short arms and putting on my Square alloy hop up parts. car looks trick, however i have come across a problem. On the left side of the car when i tighten the screw on the bottom of the C Hub it locks up the knuckle so it is not free to move from side to side you have to force it to move and if you keep moving it the screw comes loose on the bottom. i do not have the same problem on the other side. Any ideas on why this is happening?
