RDRP B5RM/MM Shock Mount aluminium set

RDRP B5RM/MM Shock Mount aluminium set

Made for the Team Associated B5 series of buggies are these aluminium shock mounts from RDRP. Machined from aircraft-grade 7075-T6 aluminium and hard-anodised, the bushings not only look cool but they also improve suspension efficiency as they do not bend under heavy loads like the kit’s composite bushings do. Precision manufacturing ensures an optimised fit within the upper shock cap while the specially treated surface makes for a hard-wearing part. The parts fit both rear and mid motor converted cars.

Infinity CF arm stiffeners for the 8ight

Infinity CF arm stiffeners for the 8ight

From X Factory Infinity for the TLR 8ight comes this new new carbon-fibre arm stiffener set whose purpose is to remove all the flex from the car’s A-arms while also adding strength. The initial prototypes were used during practice at the recent World Championships in Italy, showing improvement and Chief Engineer Paul Sinclair has re-worked the design, adding strength and stronger fasteners, and recent testing has gone perfectly. When mounted up your 8ight handle as the car was designed to do, making it much more predictable and lowering your lap times.

Exotek TLR 22-4 rear camber block & front tower

Exotek TLR 22-4 rear camber block & front tower

New from Exotek for the TLR 22-4 4wd buggy are a new rear camber block and front shock tower. The rear camber block has been made from heavy duty machined 7075 and they have added 2 additional and important higher roll centre mounting points at the bottom of the camber mounts. The new lower mounting points are excellent for freeing up the buggy at the rear for more mid corner steering but also increased on power traction and stability. The front shock tower has been made from stealthy matte finish 5mm thick carbon fibre. Much stiffer and stronger for consistent damper action yet still light weight due to its extra machining and the wide open shape allows air to pass through for better body aero. The one piece shock tower eliminates the lower camber mount for improved durability and uses flat head screws for better shock tower alignment onto the bulkhead.
