Pro-Line Impulse 1.9” black internal bead-loc wheel

Coming soon from Pro-Line is the Impulse 1.9” black plastic internal bead-loc wheel for 1/10th rock crawlers. These wheels are designed to not only look scale but to be super easy to use by only requiring six screws per wheel for mounting tyres. The unique 3-piece plastic wheel design bolts together in the back and locks on to most 1.9″ crawling tyres. The back of the 12mm hex wheel also accepts Pro-Line’s optional brass brake rotor weights for additional looks and performance. The overall wheel width and wheel offset are the same as Pro-Line’s line of 1.9″ aluminium Pro-Forge wheels and the wheels will hit stores soon.

Exotek Exo-Six alloy gearbox & CF shock towers

Exotek have introduced new option part for the Exo-Six conversion kit in the form of an aluminium gearbox set, carbon fibre shock towers and a 48 pitch main gear. Starting with the gearbox, the bulkhead is machined from 7075 alloy and provides a solid tweak-free design that is about 8g lighter than each of the stock plastic gear boxes for a substantially lower centre of gravity and thus improved chassis roll. New camber mounting points are more inboard for smoother handling when running longer camber link lengths and more robust to resist breakages as in the stock plastic mounts. Additional features include new centre hold sway bar guide for less weight and easier alignment and raised 2mm top plate mounts allow for easier access to the motor screws and battery plugs. Last but not least do precise bearing guides make for a much more free drive train versus stock.

Pro-Line Ambush truck body shells

Coming from Pro-Line are the new Ambush truck body shells for 313mm wheelbase rock crawlers and 1/10th monster trucks. The original Ambush body was released many years ago, well before scale crawling went mainstream, so Pro-Line has updated the body style for more modern tastes. The bodies include Pro-Line’s Ridge-Line Trail Cage moulded to replicate full scale cages and accepts Pro-Line’s Overland Scale Roof Rack, that is sold separately, for adding scale accessories like the optional 4″ LED Light Bar. The Ambush bodies feature a scale interior complete with seats and a separate dash along with a rear gas tank and trunk space for installing even more scale accessories. The bodies are available in two variants, for 313mm/12.3” wheelbase crawlers and also for 1/10th monster trucks such as the Pro-Line Pro-MT 4×4 or Traxxas Stampede 4×4.

Pro-Line Slide Job, Prism & KO2 SC tyres

Coming from Pro-Line are three new 1/10th short course tyres in the form of the Slide Job SC, Prism SC and T/A KO2 tyres. Starting with the Slide Job SC, the tread was specially developed for dirt oval racing and was inspired by the tyres found in full-size motorsport so drivers can have realistic style and performance on their SC Mod. The Slide Job SC features rounded side tread for consistent slide action that will not catch ruts and flip the truck when it is thrown up into the corner. The multi-block tread pattern creates great forward grip combined with long lasting and consistent performance. The 2.2”/3.0” tyre is available in the grippy M2 compound.
