Schelle B5M rear pull hinge pins & SC5M protector

Schelle Racing Innovations have new option parts for the Team Associated B5M and SC5M off-road vehicles available. Starting with the buggy part, the new rear pull hinge pins are the perfect complement to the aluminium arm mount D Schelle released in early this year. With some slight trimming to the B5M plastic rear bumper racers can remove the carbon fibre rear cap and remove the rear hinge pins and arms without taking any screws off of the chassis bottom. The pins are 3.5mm diameter chrome steel with a hard Titanium Nitride coating. The pins fit all B5M, B5M Factory Lite, T5M, and SC5M vehicles equipped with the Schelle arm mount D. Also new is the chassis protector for the SC5M short course truck. Being an authentic UpgradeRC product the decal is printed on quality 18 mil thick vinyl with aggressive adhesive and each package contains the chassis protector and two replacement rear skids.

Exotek DEX210 rear bulkhead & suspension hangers

Exotek Racing have new aluminium option parts for the Team Durango 210-series 2WD vehicles in mid motor configuration available. First up is a rear bulkhead conversion made of high-strength 7075 aluminium and machined down to minimise weight. The part provides standard width but lowered inner camber link mounting points for improved high roll centre options. Also gear box access and removal is much easier as the suspension stays fully in place when the gear box is removed. The stronger inner ball end mounting makes for more durable camber link mounting and the design also reinforces the gear box mounting. The part, that fits all versions of the DEX210, DESC210 and DEST210, uses stock Team Durango type 2 or Exotek type 2 rear suspension hangers and included come spacers and hardware. The conversion is recommended for experienced modellers as it requires hand-cutting of the original gear box.
