Techra D09 split/1-piece suspension mounts set

Techra’s recently introduced interchangeable split/1-piece suspension mount set is soon also available for the VBC Racing D09 touring car. The kit will include two CNC-machined 7075-T6 aluminium split mounts and also one aluminium and one brass 1-piece connection bride that couples and reinforces the assembly, making it in fact as rigid as a 1-piece mount. The system allows to adapt the chassis twist to various track conditions and thanks to including a lightweight 3.1g alloy and a heavy 9.8g brass bridge, users can also fine-tune the car’s weight distribution. The split mounts were designed to accept the original suspension inserts and the set also includes four red anodised 1mm aluminium shims.
