Team Durango DEX410v3 4wd buggy

Team Durango have announced the imminent arrival of the DEX410v3. This new model is an evolution of the previous DEX410 model and features parts that have been tested and proven by their Team Drivers over recent months. Some of the new features include Big bore shocks which are more consistent on rough tracks due to the larger volume of oil. A new ‘Kuhler’ body with increased space inside the body and improved air flow to the electronics as well as new RR suspension holder that allows the rear squat to be altered using composite inserts. New ‘Fine Tune’ shock towers with finer adjustment for the upper mounting positions, and more rear camber link positions on the rear tower. New HD Ball Ends are used throughout that are tighter fitting and less likely to pop-off during a collision. 14mm Hex hubs that provide stronger and more reliable wheel fitment and gold Ti Ni coated shock shafts as standard for super smooth action. Expected to be available mid September.

Wheel profile, interior and exterior ribbing and spoke design were all areas of focus while creating the combination of durability, clearance, functionality and appearance.

If both the front and rear towers are fitted to your buggy they reduce the weight by 24g, at the same time lowering the centre of gravity. Both the front and rear towers also feature additional shock mounting holes that allow you to mount your shocks further in on the tower. The rear tower also offers more camber link locations for further tuning options.
