M4WD-13 technical carbon rear wide multi roller plate for Tamiya Mini 4WD

The M4WD-13 is a single-piece carbon rear roller plate engineered for 1/32 Tamiya Mini 4WD cars. It is configured to provide wider roller offsets for advanced setup work on Super-II and MA chassis families, aimed at competitive builders who tune roller geometry and rear stiffness.

Manufactured from a single carbon sheet with precision cutouts, the plate reduces inert mass while retaining stiffness around mounting bosses. The additional mounting positions let tuners test alternative roller layouts and track-specific offsets without altering the primary chassis. During installation verify clearance to body mounts and rear stabilisers and confirm the plate sits flat under torque.

Fitment is compatible with common Mini 4WD rear arrangements; typical fasteners are M3 or M2.6 depending on roller assemblies. Confirm centre-to-centre hole spacing and use calibrated spacer washers for repeatable geometry. Note that this plate adjusts roller placement only and has no effect on the drivetrain arrangement.

For collectors and workshop use inspect for planarity and undamaged boss walls when assessing condition. Carbon surface marks are generally cosmetic; any delamination or cracked mounting points should be treated as structural faults.

The plate allows wider roller offsets and finer placement control, improving corner stability and allowing tuners to dial in rear resistance without adding mass to other areas.
Use consistent M3 or M2.6 screws with calibrated spacer stacks and torque values. Marking spacer stacks helps reproduce geometry between runs.
Measure hole centre distances against the plate layout and test-fit with the intended roller assemblies and spacers. Check for parallelism to the chassis and absence of stress at the bosses.
Start with conservative roller offsets and progressively increase width while testing lap times and stability. Record spacer stacks and screw torque for repeatable changes.
When trimming or drilling use sharp carbide bits, clamp the part, and extract dust. Small repairs are possible but avoid excessive rework that undermines boss integrity.
