Over the last few years UKMonsters has gained a reputation for producing very high quality chassis and upgrade parts for the Tamiya Clodbuster, we are now looking at the Tamiya Lunchbox and will be continuing this trend.

Due to the cheaper cost of the Lunchbox most of the upgrade parts available seem to reflect this lower quality (3d printed parts etc).

UKMonsters will only be producing our usual CNC'd carbon and machined aluminium upgrades to our usual very high standards.

 
Lunchbox - Alloy servo mount brace
What is it?
Whats included?
How much and where to buy
Installation

This is a servo mount/brace machined from solid 6061 aluminium. The stock fixing position for the servo is very weak, the servo can flex and in a big crash the mounting points on the chassis can easily break.

This brace fixes to the chassis in 4 places and significantly strengthens the front end and servo mounting points.

The servo needs to be fitted to the mount then attached to the chassis. The extra fixing points need two 3mm holes drilling in the chassis. The mount can then be fixed to the chassis with the included hardware.

Lunchbox - Pro Independent front suspension kit (with V2 HD arms)
What is it?
Whats included?
How much and where to buy
Installation

This converts the front suspension to a double wishbone setup.

The kit consists of new Version 2 HD CNC machined lower arms made from solid Acetal/Delrin. Unlike 3D printing and even ABS plastic molding Delrin is very strong, resists wear and due to the design has some flex to absorb impacts.

The hub carriers are under stress from suspension and hub mounting points, so these are machined from solid 6061 aluminium for maximum strength to resist the loads and impacts of off road driving.

Upper links are made using SSD rod ends and stainless M4 threaded bar for adjustable length. These are attached to the chassis using a carbon 3mm plate.

Everything required to convert the front suspension to double wishbones.

Pair of new V2 HD Delrin wishbones and alloy hubs.

Upper links with rod ends.

Carbon mounting plate.

All fasteners and fixings needed are included and made from high quality stainless steel.

Lunchbox - Delrin body mounts + carbon braces
What is it?
Whats included?
How much and where to buy
Installation

This is a set of 4 CNC machined Delrin body mounts with carbon braces.

The stock body mounts are very fragile due to the size and ABS material. Some aftermarket alloy posts can cause the mounting points to break in a big crash.

These delrin mounts are very strong and also larger than stock to acomodate bigger body clips and more material around them.

The carbon braces span the width of the chassis to spread the load from any impacts. This reduces the chances of the fixing point on the chassis breaking.

4 x Machined delrin body mounts

2 x Carbon fiber chassis braces.

All mounting hardware.

The holes in the body shell need to be drilled out to 6.5mm for the larger body posts.
