Associated TC6.1 vertical ballstud bearing caps

The new TC6.1 vertical ballstud bearing caps from Team Associated allow for finer adjustments of both the link angle and length, providing you more options to tune to your track conditions. The TC6.1 vertical ballstud bearing caps feature three positions total, all with a vertical ball stud orientation so that the ball height can be adjusted in finer increments. The shortest link position is the same length as the original, with the additional two link positions offering longer links. The new longer link positions will make the car more stable and feel more planted. The new TC6.1 vertical ballstud bearing caps come with an A-cap and B-cap, two sets are needed to convert one car, as well as the TC6.1 vertical ballstud shock towers.
