X Factory X-6 MIP C-CVD set

X Factory X-6 MIP C-CVD set

Many X-6 and 6 Squared owners have wanted a genuine MIP C-CVD kit with the special X Factory axles and it is here at last. These new C-CVDs are made for X-Factory by M.I.P. and contains two complete C-CVDs per package. These units have the drive pin captured by a screw-on plastic ring instead of being secured with a set screw and is far more reliable because there is no set screw to come loose, ending your race. They feature the longer axles used on the X-6 & 6Sq with the correct spacer that allows full droop on the car.

Factory Team Titanium nitride coated ball studs

Factory Team Titanium nitride coated ball studs

Team Associated have introduced a range of titanium nitride coated ball studs to its Factory Team line of high performance accessories. Used primarily on shock shafts, titanium nitride coating reduces friction while increasing durability. When used on ball studs, suspension components move more freely which in both on-road and off-road applications means more consistent handling and reduced maintenance. Packaged in pairs in metric and standard sizes with long or short necks for use on Team Associated on-road and off-road vehicles.

X-Factory X-60 Body reinforcement plate

X-Factory X-60 Body reinforcement plate

X-Factory have announced a cool new carbon fibre part to reinforce the rear body clip area of the X-60 body. Because the rear body clips are in a recessed spot, this area is naturally a weak spot on the body, so this new part spreads the stress over a larger area to lengthen the life of the body. The C.F. part bolts onto the existing body and will transfer easily to a new body, so one purchase will last through several bodies for the life of your truck. Supplied with the screws and locking nuts to install it and a drill bit so the body mount holes can be enlarged to accommodate the new part.
