Starting with the F104 parts, the aluminium upper suspension mount further fine tunes the chassis with the ability to choose from 4 different camber positions depending on how it is installed, while a new aluminium servo mount helps add greater steering rigidity and sharper steering response to your formula 1 chassis.
