Team Associated RC8B3.1 FT tall rear shock tower

Coming from Team Associated and made for the RC8B3.1 1/8th scale buggies is the Factory Team tall rear carbon fibre shock tower. By raising the top shock mounting positions, a taller tower geometry was created that increases up-travel. Up-travel is how much further the shock can travel upwards in its stroke after the chassis has bottomed out with the ground. Increasing up-travel lets the tyre absorb more impact and improves handling in bumps and high-speed cornering. With the new geometry up-travel is optimised for both low and high axle positions and the tower is usable for the RC8B3.1 nitro and RC8B3.1e electric kits.

MIP Bypass1 Kyosho & HB Racing shock pistons

MIP’s popular Bypass 1 pistons are now also available for Kyosho and HB Racing 1/8th scale off-road kits. Featuring colour-codes Valves, the Bypass1 pistons combined together with these valves allow to control and maximise the car’s performance based on which valves used. Thicker valves generate a slower rebound and thinner valves get quicker rebounds. Each set includes four pistons and a set of three different valves with the Kyosho MP10/MP9 set coming with 16mm 8-hole pistons while the HB Racing set includes 16mm 5-hole pistons. Both are available from now on.

Xray XB8 graphite C-hub lower suspension arm

Coming from Xray and made for the XB8 series of buggies is a graphite-reinforced lower front suspension arm for the C-hub-style suspension. The special graphite composite mixture offers increased rigidity in high-bite and high-temperature conditions while allowing for a more free suspension movement on dusty tracks. Due to being less flexible, the arm increased stability and cornering speed on medium to high-bite tracks. The arm is available separately and it is usable on both the left and right hand side of the buggy.
