JConcepts B74 aluminium arm mounts

JConcepts have announced the release of their new aluminium suspension arm mounts for the Team Associated B74 buggy. Available in blue colour, the precision machined pieces are carefully crafted to accept the standard Team Associated pill inserts. The suspension mounts are a critical piece of any vehicle, they provide the base for adjustments such as toe-in, anti-squat and wheelbase. A stout suspension mount can go a long way to assuring your vehicle is technically correct and up to specification. The JConcepts mounts are lightweight enough for the weight conscious racer but beefy enough to stand-up to the rigours of high-end 4WD modified buggy racing. The mounts feature chamfer highlighted edging which improve the curb appeal and bring out the luster in any show or race ride. They are available separately and identification markings are located on the part to show position.
