Schumacher Cougar SV gearbox casing & shock mount

Schumacher Cougar SV gearbox casing & shock mount

Schumacher have announce the release of the following new products for the Cougar SV. Firstly is this CNC machined alloy 2 piece gearbox casing. Designed to be a super precision fit for ultimate alignment of the transmission assembly with an extremely tight seal to prevent dirt ingress. Made from tough 7075-T6 alloy, this unit also looks cool with its engraving and stealth black look. The heavier weight also gives more rear weight bias for improved traction. Secondly for the Cougar SV is this new shock mount. Something that the team drivers have been developing for some time, this new 4mm carbon fibre mount is drilled to sit 4mm lower than the standard version. This enables the front end to have more droop and less up travel, something the drivers have desired under a lot of conditions.
