Rusti Design B64 carbon fibre option parts

Following their extensive line of carbon fibre option parts for the Team Associated B6 series of buggies, French brand Rusti Design has introduced several option parts for the B64 4WD kit. First up are a carbon fibre front shock tower as well as standard and tall rear shock towers. The standard parts match the kit geometry while the taller rear shock tower was developed for the use with longer 31mm shock body dampers.


Also new is a multi-piece centre diff brace for the B64 and B64D. Constructed from a 2.5mm carbon fibre plate and 3-D-printed parts the cover allows for easier slipper adjustment as it grants access to the main gear. On top of this does the part sport a wire organiser, meaning cleaner wiring jobs and more professional looks. Also new is a set of steering block arms in 0mm, +1mm and +2mm specification. Using the +1mm and +2mm parts will increase the steering Ackermann value, resulting in improved mid-corner steering. The plates come marked for easy identification. A common sight on many B64s is the gearbox shim set that helps to raise the rear gearbox. The Rusti Design set includes a 1mm piece for the gear box and also a 1mm shim for the rear chassis brace that is usable with both the long or short variant. Next up is the carbon fibre servo mount brace for the B64. It is made of 2.5mm graphite material and offers both improved stiffness and optimised weight. Made for all B64 with VTS slipper is a slipper pad set that includes two specially designed 1mm carbon fibre slipper plates. The material and shape prevents glazing, resulting in a more consistent slipper performance while also making adjustment easier. The final carbon fibre part available is a 3mm carbon fibre battery strap that works with the standard mounting hardware. Last but not least is a 3-D-printed 30mm fan mount for the B64 series of buggies. The lightweight mount was designed to be bolted directly to the back of the chassis, next to the motor, in place of the M3 nut. A piece of adhesive foam is included to help cushion vibrations and hits from jumps.
