Sporting a black anodised lightweight machined aluminium handle, the tip allows the user to more easily assembly their clutch by being able to set the springs with ease. The tool comes with a matching aluminium lid to protect the tip and a red plastic end cap for a smooth surface during use, and also to protect the handle if dropped.

JConcepts now has a host of accessory parts available for the Regulator chassis conversion kit. While designing the conversion, the design team took things an additional step by re-designing the entire axle housing and ladder bar assembly based on the original Clod Buster layout. This optimised layout provides several new updates and unlocks even more potential from the JConcepts Regulator. The parts include transmission housing halves, axle tubes, steering blocks, ladder bars, lower link connectors, and connector bar support. JConcepts offers an extensive list of items which can be purchased through their Shapeways store. In order to take advantage of some of these updates, it is necessary to use the non 3d printed items below in conjunction with the Shapeways parts to completely outfit the vehicle in performance condition.
Similar to their P1 17mm lightweight locking wheel nuts released last week by T-Works for 1/8th scale buggy, truggy and GT cars, the difference is that these versions are closed on the end. Machined from high-quality 7075 aluminium the wheel nuts have been heavily machined to reduce weight with only 3 of the 6 corners of the nut left for an aggressive look. The serrated back will grip into the wheel, ensuring the nut will not come loose during your run. Sold as a set of 4, the P1 versions are available in grey, black, titanium, red and blue colours and in a P1.25, for HN and IGT8, in black and red.
