T-Works introduce new NB48 2.0 optionals

Coming from T-Works and made for the Tekno NB48 2.0 buggy are new aluminium optionals in the form of a +5mm shock standoff and a diff cross pin set. Starting with the standoffs, the shock mounts are machined from high-quality 7075-T6 aluminium and they are of a +5mm design, meaning the shock are attached more laid back which can optimise the suspension action in certain conditions. To improve durability the parts come with a hard surface coating and also included is gold-colour mounting hardware. Also new is a 6-piece set of hard-coated 7075-T6 aluminium differential cross pins. Designed to be a direct replacement for the standard pins the alloy parts remove rotational masses from the drivetrain for quicker spool-up and acceleration. While being available as a full set, the pins are also available as pairs for single diff units.

The 8-piece set will lower the overall weight with the hard-coated surface treatment ensuring high durability and smooth suspension movement.
