K-Factory have released these CNC-machined rear hub carriers with 1.5 degrees of toe-in for the Team Magic E4. The hub carriers have been precision machined to exact tolerances and are extremely tough, due to the high strength of the material chosen and the parts design.

More new products from K-Factory, this time its the release of this black, hard coated, rear chassis stiffener for the Team Magic M1B 1/8th scale buggy. These superbly crafted stiffeners are designed to improve the M1B’s performance on high bite, manicured tracks that are seen in many countries around the world. In these conditions, a stiffer chassis will exploit the higher levels of traction that are present by reducing chassis flex which will adding traction in low bite conditions, can reduce response in high bite conditions.
