Xray XB808 adjustable rear hub carrier
Xray have released this aluminum XB808 adjustable rear hub carrier. CNC-machined from premium lightweight Swiss 7075 T6 aluminium, hardcoated for extra durability and long life, it offers new and unique possibility to adjust the roll-center in 1:8 off road cars. The upright has 3 holes where the upper linkage can be mounted by aluminum ball with thread, while aluminium shims can be used for increasing or decreasing angle of roll center. Smart Xray engineering includes the use of composite bushings to secure ball-bearings in both sides of the hub carrier, allowing perfect fitment and smooth operation to ultimately impart much higher lifespan compared to bearings installed directly into aluminium hub carriers. Additional roll center adjustments are possible through the use of composite roll center bushings which can be inserted in two different orientation positions for the pivot pin. Holes in the upper position give +2mm upper roll center, while holes in the lower position are equal to the standard composite roll center position.
