RPM B4 series front A-arms & bulkhead

The RPM front A-arms and bulkhead set is designed for all Team Associated B4 series vehicles including the newer B4.1 and B4.2. The wishbones sport an updated design with the hinge pin retaining screws now sitting in-line with the pins to overcome structural weakness issues associated with the original design. The arms are also a lot beefier that the stock items and come moulded in RPM’s genuine nylon compound for added rigidity. They are made to retain the stock geometry and also include a suitable front bulkhead.

Diggity Designs DC4 conversion kit

The Diggity Designs DC4 conversion kit for Team Associated’s ‘near vintage’ TC4 optimises the use of LiPo batteries and brushless motors by relocating and centralising the battery and electronics closely to the centreline. A new suspension geometry via redesigned shock towers and a lower centre of gravity helps to improve traction and handling as does the tweak free floating servo mount. Narrower and thinner chassis and top plate provides maximum traction on low traction conditions as well as maintaining stability under high traction conditions. The kit targets VTA and USGT racers with the car also being useable in today’s sedan mod and stock classes. Hard and soft chassis and top plates are available as tuning options. The kits is limited to 50 pieces with labelled chassis and kit boxes.

JConcepts SC10, T4 & B4 anti-roll-bar kit

The JConcepts anti-roll-bar kit for Team Associated SC10, T4 or B4 vehicles is the result of continuous driving on indoor, technical driving circuits which require the correct vehicle balance. JConcepts, together with test drivers Brian Kinwald and Paul Wynn, sought out the proper pivot placement on the front and rear a-arms which provided the best performance point, which became the basis for the new design. The inner mounted locations place more emphasis on wire diameter and less mechanical advantage which allows the driver a more finely tuned piece.
