TVR Ball-X Revo & Maxx truck axles

TVR Ball-X Traxxas truck axles

TVR introduce their Ball-X driveshafts for the Traxxas Revo and Maxx line of monster trucks. The special design of the driveshaft and wheel axle coupler using balls over conventional pins makes for a three times larger contact area to distribute torque loads more efficiently, more reliable and without any binding. The construction also allows for angles up to 50 degree for smaller turning circles for more low-speed agility. The driveshafts comes as pairs with suitable differential outdrives.

RPM Slash 4×4 caster & spindle blocks

RPM Slash 4x4 caster & spindle blocks

RPM introduce these caster and spindle blocks for Traxxas Slash 4×4 based vehicles. They are designed to increase the strength and durability of the front axle assembly not only by making use of PRM’s well-known nylon material but also by sporting a completely new design. The core design of the caster blocks revolve around the lower-case ‘H’ structure which provides extreme rigidity to keep camber and caster setting locked in place while running normally while the used material provides extra toughness when needed. The blocks are usable on all Traxxas Slash 4×4 based vehicles including the Stampede 4×4 and 1/10th Rally car.

Pro-Line Rat Rod & Desert Milita body

Not really of a racing subject but cool to look at are two new Pro-Line body shells for the Traxxas 1:16 Revo truck. First up is the Rat Rod body, a low-profile soft top roadster with large front grille. The crude looking shell comes with custom pinstripe-style stickers and grill/headlight decals. The second new body is the Desert Militia, again for the 1:16 Revo. Combining several military vehicle designs the body sports huge fenders to clear the oversized race tires and massive suspension travel. The back of the vehicle has been enclosed with quick release panels to hide the spare tires, fuel cell and oil coolers. A final touch is the full width roof mounted light bar.
