Rickside B6 wing mount extensions & Ackermann plates

Japanese brand Rickside Design Products has introduced two new option parts for the Team Associated B6 and B6D buggies. First up are 4mm wing mount extensions made of aluminium. The bushings were designed to set the wing further back which can result in improved downforce especially at high speeds while also shifting some weight towards the rear. The mounts are machined from high-quality aluminium, they come black anodised and including longer mounting screws. By using a double layer of bushings the wing can be set at a +8mm offset for even greater influence.


Also new is a set of aluminium steering plates for the B6 and B6D. They are of an angled design to achieve a totally different Ackermann geometry that will scrub less speed in corners. An additional set of toe link ballstud mounting holes helps to fine-tune the steering characteristics. The plates come black anodises for wear and looks.
