Polished and anodised in black with custom orange chamfers, the alloy construction maintains proper gear mesh for longer gear life and reduces the chance of stripped screws coming loose in a race.
From T-Works comes this top deck conversion set for the HB Racing D418 4wd buggy. As standard this car doesn’t come with a top deck, instead relying on front and rear bracing to prevent flex. This set from T-Works allows you to easily convert the buggy to have a full top deck. The set comprises of two aluminium brackets for the tops of the centre diff bulkheads, front and rear top deck, as well as optional shorter rear top deck, UFO screws and all the various spacers needed.

Similar in design to the recently release ONG RC8B3.2 shock caps, RC Project have released shock caps for the Sworkz S35-4 & S35-3 and also for the HB Racing D819RS, D819 & D817. The 6 upper machined pockets on the cap have a dual purpose, reducing the weight of the cap, making it the lightest on the market as well as helping with heat dissipation. The 3 bleed holes coupled to the new membranes will allow a rebound close to 0 and a homogeneous response between the shock absorbers once closed. For the HB specific shock caps, the new geometry allows a front droop up to 107 mm in order to adapt the set-up according to the type of track with the caps mounting on the shock tower without any modification. Both kits include 12 membranes with 3 different hardnesses that will allow you to vary the behaviour of the shock absorber based on the track, the driving style and temperature.
