SWorkz S12-1 aluminium diff case cover & gear

SWorkz have new option parts for the gear differential of the S12-1 2WD buggy available in the form of an aluminium case cover and an aluminium diff case. Machined from 7075 material and coming anodised for wear the parts maximise reliability with the case cover being usable both on the standard composite and also the alloy gear case. When used in combination with the composite case, the alloy diff cover will ensure perfect gear roundness for improved durability while the alloy gear case comes in handy especially on very high bite surfaces. Both parts are available separately and they are a direct replacement for the stock items.

Coming from SWorkz and made for the S12-1 2WD buggy are two new aluminium option parts. First up is an aluminium Ackermann plate made from high-quality aluminium to make for improved overall strength and steering precision. The black anodised part comes including a set of ball bearings, shims and mounting hardware. Also new and designed to work together with the above Ackermann plate are aluminium steering bellcranks. Like the steering plate the bellcranks come machined from aluminium and they sport a black surface finish for wear and looks. More sturdy than the standard composite parts the alloy bellcranks will improve steering response especially on high-bite surfaces.
