Xray XB8 carbon fibre shock towers

Xray have introduced carbon fibre shock towers for the XB8 1/8th off-road buggy. The front shock stay is cut from 4mm material while the rear variant is made using slightly thinner 3.5mm material, adding to the already existing 4mm variant. All offer an extra-strong heavy duty design, they allow the use of multiple inner ballstud positions in the rear and the standard composite inserts in the front and the 3.5mm rear tower is especially recommended for lower traction surfaces due to being softer in flex than the standard shock stay.
