Have them in 64dp. Fits very well in 419x. They are kind of carbon reinforced plastic (hard).

Has anyone been able to find the 419x ws aluminum chassis or 1.75 mm upper deck anywhere?

What do you guys use for the flange tubes on the steering upright?

I have always kept the old 54075 TB-03 in my spare parts, but it looks like its being discontinued.

So I looked up the parts in the 419 / 419 x manual and

418 / 419
1. 19804382 4.5 x 4.0 upper flange
2. 19804396 4.5 x 4.7 lower flange
3. 418 still uses this under the upper flange 198056455 3x.07, since it uses the IFS up right
4. 419 doesn't user an upper spacer

419x
1. 19804942 4.6 x 3.9 upper flange
2. 19804943 4.6 x 4.4 lower flange
3. 53539 5.5 x 0.5 spacer on top of upper flange or 198056455 3x.07

The ones that are in the old 54075 TB-03 are different dimensions as well.. only thing consistent the 5x9 ball stud and the 3 x10 counter sunk screw

So Flange me.. I'm confused what to use..

It is pretty hard to buy them. I have to turn them on a lathe with better clearance. If you have access to lathe it is 20 minutes job using brass rod.

Not sure of the hole pattern but Arc 48p spurs are very thin;

The 419x flange tubes have less slop as the older versions. They are interchangeable.

Where are you located? In Germany you can buy both regular as spare parts.

If you are located in the U.S. I would suggest rcmart.com (aluminium lower in stock).

Hey Mike,
The pattern has to be perpendicular instead of diagonal like the Arc. I think I may have to switch over to 64P because I don't think I can achieve the range of FDR that I need with the 48P.

I am in the US. I've only been able to find the 419 aluminum chassis on RC Mart. Do you know if the 419 chassis fits the 419x?

Sounds like Tamiya needs to work on an option pulley for extra gear choices

Agree with that assessment.

Tom1977

No because the bulkheads are more narrow in the 419x.

In Germany you can get both lower and upper XWS deck @ modellbau-seidl.de

But they have no official option for international shipping anymore! I think Tamiya distribution blocked that. But you're free to ask them for intl. shipping.

Tom,

Thanks for the info! That's a bummer that I can't use the 419 lower deck and that Germany is the closest option for me... It seems like it is getting harder to get parts for 419x in the US as a lot of parts are out of stock. I somehow cracked my upper deck and am having the hardest time finding one in stock anywhere...

One small discovery about suspension arms in 419X. Some of you has reported slop on the arms developed quickly. It happens but seems that slop is not on the hinge pins. If you loose screws on suspension mount (one piece) and tighten it again it will be ok till next hit.

Just drill a couple of holes on the spur gear, and you will be good.
