Revolution Design T6.2 body mount stiffener set

Stadium trucks are fun to drive and durable, not least because the body protects the parts that are exposed on a 2WD buggy. Of course, this comes at a price, and stadium trucks bodies usually don’t last as long as their little brothers. For Team Associated’s latest entry to the category, help has arrived in form of the Revolution Design T6.2 body mount stiffener set. Precisely machined carbon fibre stiffeners brace the body mounts against the impacts of involuntary tough landings, thus reducing stress on the polycarbonate body. As a side effect, body clips tend to stay in place much better, which aids to solve another regular issue of stadium trucks.

RDRP B6.3, T6.2, SC6.2 aluminium steering blocks

Add extra durability and precision with RDRP’s new aluminium steering blocks for Team Associated’s sixth generation of 2WD vehicles. Sharing the geometry with the kit’s 4mm offset plastic parts, they are a direct replacement without influencing your dialled set-up too much. The black anodised aluminium parts are labelled with laser-etched L and R marks, and of course the well-known RDRP logo. Silver chamfered edges round out the stealthy factory look.
