Tekno RC have new option parts for their line of 1/8th and 1/10th vehicles available. First up is the locking shock rod ends and spring perch set. The all-new design mates up with the company’s new captured shock boots and it will ensure the suspension stays consistent throughout any race or run. The spring perches rest on a shelf around the rod end instead of directly on top of the rod end. The result is less interference from the shock boot and absolutely no sacrifice in up travel. Each spring perch and rod end is also secured by an M3x10mm set screw for added reliability. The rod ends and spring perches are compatible with Tekno’s 1/8th off-road buggies and trucks as well as their 1/10th 4WD SC truck.

New from ProTek R/C comes a 4mm thick foam pit mat for comfortable wrenching in the pits. The high-density mat is soft and durable, and it rolls up for convenient storage. A zipped mesh pouch is included to protect the pit mat while stowed. At 122x61cm, the mat is giving plenty of room when building a new ride or thrashing during quick repairs and it has a non-slip textured surface that has been sealed, so that it is water and oil-resistant. Non-toxic cleaners can be used to remove oily residue left over from shock and differential maintenance.
