Avid EB410/ET410 titanium shock standoffs V2

Coming from Avid and made for the Tekno EB410 and ET410 kits are the new FastTune titanium shock stand offs. They are replacements for the new #TKR6527B standoff that use the keyed shock bushings #TKR6780. They include Avid’s FastTune feature which allows to use a common 1.5mm Allen wrench to prevent the standoff from spinning while using a 5.5mm socket wrench on the other side. The other solutions out there require to either take the shock completely off the standoff to reach the 7.0mm nut or to use a 7.0mm open-ended socket wrench. In addition to being easier to wrench on they help to lose some weight from the highest point on the car by switching from steel to titanium. The set includes four shock standoffs machined from billet 6Al-4V titanium.

Machined from 3mm high-quality 7075-T6 material the shock towers are of an updated design with the front shock stay’s outer line being a tad smaller than the carbon part while retaining the standard shock geometry. The rear tower underwent a greater redesign with the inner shock mounting hole removed and an additional outer added. Also the shape is slightly different and a new lower wing mounting position has been added. The towers will improve drivability and precision when running on high-bite tracks and they are available separately from now on.
