Team C T8T carbon A-arm stiffeners

Team C T8T carbon A-arm stiffeners

Team C Racing introduce these carbon fibre A-arm stiffeners for the T8T truggy kit. The parts are machined from strong carbon material and designed to reinforce the lower A-arms of the T8T line of trucks when running on very high grip surfaces or in high ambient temperatures. As details on the parts are a bit vague we think you may need to drill the needed mounting holes in the arms on your own but maybe there is a running change on the T8T arms so they come drilled from stock.
