Rebellion-RC T4 low profile conversion kit

Coming from RC-Carbonstore’s Rebellion-RC brand is a low profile conversion kit for the Xray T4 touring car. The set allows for a somewhat radical shock conversion that places the dampers 5mm lower compared to the standard setting for an overall lower centre of gravity. In addition the updated geometry optimises overall damping for higher corner speeds, less traction rolling in high-grip conditions and a more linear shock action. The set, that fits the 2017 to 2019 variants of the T4, contains all needed parts, including shock towers, lower arm extensions and machined original T4 arms. As usual with Rebellion-RC’s carbon fibre optionals, the set is available in twelve different carbon fibre weave colours and all parts, as well as the machined arms, are also available separately for spares or repair.

Xray XB2 short 2-pad slipper clutch set

Coming from Xray and made for the XB2 2WD buggy is the new short 2-pad slipper clutch set. The redesigned slipper clutch allows the rear shock absorbers to be mounted in front of the rear arms. The frontward position increases stability on surfaces where the rear of the car collapses, particularly in high-speed corners. Team drivers also prefer this position on low-grip tracks. The 2-pad slipper clutch ensures super-smooth clutch operation and efficient, consistent braking. It is very easy to make ultra-fine adjustments to the slipper clutch externally. The slipper pads are made of ultra-efficient SLS material with very-high slip efficiency, thus allowing very precise adjustment. The lightweight slipper plates are machined from premium Swiss 7075 T6, additionally hardened before a final black surface treatment. The plates also have a machined relief which decreases the friction surface to assist with clutch slip adjustment. The set includes the slipper clutch assembly, 75T and 78T 48 pitch spur gears as well as a new motor plate.

7075.it T4 LCG battery plate

Coming from 7075.it and made for Xray’s aluminium flex and extra flex chassis is a LCG battery plate. Weighing it at 35g and adding only 0.5mm of height to the battery compartment area, the plate fits snuggly into the herringbone-shaped chassis cutout, interlocking with the main plate while not disturbing natural flex. The result is an improved weight balance when using low centre of gravity LiPo batteries without doing away with their advantages of lowering the overall centre of gravity. The plate comes in a shiny natural finish and sports dark logos and writings for looks and easy identification.

Arena T4 1mm upper deck shims

Coming from Arena and made for the Xray T4 series of touring cars are 1mm carbon fibre upper deck shims. The spacers raise the top deck by 1mm, making for slightly softer chassis flex characteristics than standard in order to further fine-tune the overall flex available. The set includes four precision-machined carbon fibre shims that are a direct fit on all T4 models.
