JConcepts Finnisher for TLR22 & DEX210

JConcepts have introduced 2 new Finnisher shells for the TLR22 and the new Durango DEX210 2wd chassis’. Increased windshield angle provides a steady force upfront during mid-flight wind gusts on large jumps while the forward cab placement changes performance / visible bias which helps steering rotation in low traction corners. The side-pods have been simplified and JC styled to remove unwanted changes in height to neutralize the at-speed handling. The chassis to body fit has been tightened up and with the addition of fastening hook and loop tape, eliminates empty voids that contribute to mid-flight directional changes. The rear of the cab has a new step feature and a louver which can be trimmed to allow air to escape at the top of the body through its V-shaped design. Body bodies are a drop fit onto their respective cars. In addition to the newly designed body, JConcepts has included 2 of the latest 6.5″ wide Hi-Clearance rear wings.
