Mugen Seiki MSB1 Option Parts

New from Mugen Seiki are a number of option parts for its MSB1 1:10 2WD Buggy.  The release includes a new -4mm Chassis, which as the title suggests is shorter, with the 4mm removed from behind the battery of the standard chassis.   This is said to improve turning ability on both carpet or dirt high-grip surfaces.  Also in the release are universal joint rear driveshafts which allow the suspension move more smoothly compare to the kit standard CVA drive shafts.  The standard 67mm CVA bones have also been updated.   While the standard may come out of the outdrive depending on the position of the inner hinge pin, the new 68mm CVA helps expand the range of suspension setup.  Additionally the Japanese manufacturer has added a range of new 2.5mm shock pistons.
