SWorkz S12-1 alloy steering plate & steering bellcranks

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.

Still no word yet on a release date but when looking at the teaser it seems that the buggy is pretty much production ready.

SWorkz S35-2E aluminium centre driveshaft dog bones

Coming from SWorkz and made for the S35-2E 1/8th E-buggy are two aluminium centre driveshaft dog bones. Machined from high-quality aluminium and coming with a hard-anodised surface for wear, the dog bones have an increased 4.7mm diameter that makes for improved durability while the alloy material reduces the rotating weight of the drivetrain, resulting in quicker spool up and improve braking performance.
