Axon have introduced their new big bore shock II especially designed for Xray’s T4’18 touring car. The dampers are of the same construction, inner diameter and piston design as the previous version, however the shorter shock body length and an optimised piston position within the damper ensures full compatibility with the 2018 specification T4 while increasing corner speed and traction. Also the piston rod received a small update to ensure silky smooth operation which further helps with consistency and drivability. The shocks come in sets of four and they include aluminium upper and lower caps, the threaded shock bodies and pre-load nuts, as well as CNC-machined 3-hole pistons, piston rod, piston rod guides and O-rings. Not included are the needed Xray donor parts such as upper and lower shock eyelets, pivot balls, spring retainers, diaphragms and springs.

Coming from Exotek are new carbon fibre LiPo tabs and cups battery mounts for the Team Associated B6.1 and Xray XB2 series of vehicles. Both were specifically designed to allow quickly adjustable weight tuning while providing more natural chassis flex due to the “floating” battery mount with only two tabs touching the battery instead of a whole brace spanning from side to side. The sets are made of carbon fibre, the AE set scrubbing about 4.5g of weight while the Xray set is about 4g higher than stock and both include all needed hardware. The B6.1 set is usable for all B6.1-based kits such as the B6.1, T6.1 and SC6.1 as well as the older spec B6, while the Xray mounts can be used with all XB2 and XT2 series kits, however it is understood that JConcepts buggy bodies for the XB2 do not provide enough clearance for the tabs.
Coming from Xray and made for their RX8 line of 1/8th on-road cars is the graphite low-friction pulley set. The transmission belt pulleys are moulded from a specially-formulated graphite composite mix for reduced friction and increased performance and durability. The lightweight parts stand out due to their bright orange colour and they are available as complete set, as complete pulley cover set and also as separate items for the front, centre and rear areas of the car.
