Coming from Pro-Line is the classic truck interior for 1/10th crawler body shells. It features a bench style front seat for added scale realism and fits perfectly with Pro-Line’s 1966 Chevrolet C-10 body and other classic truck cabs. The dash allows to add own scale steering wheels and the interior includes many carefully sculpted details common to classic trucks. Decals are included and the interior comes made from clear polycarbonate to allow the creation of a unique colour pattern.
Coming from Pro-Line are Xray XB4 and Team Associated B64-specific Velocity-series front wheels. Lightweight and durable the rims are also stiffer than the stock wheels which provides more consistent bump handling performance and faster lap times. Pro-Line’s Ty Tessmann debuted the new wheels at the 2017 ROAR Nationals where he took the TQ and the overall win. Coming in XB4 or B64-specific offsets the wheels are available as pairs in white or fluorescent yellow colour.
Pro-Line Racing have introduced their new Prism 4WD front carpet, Pyramid astro turf rear and Inversion indoor rear tyres for 1/10th scale off-road buggies. Starting with the uniquely looking Prism 2.2″ front buggy tyre, it features tons of ultra-sSharp Prism shaped pins in the middle of the tyre combined with wedge style pins on the outside for massive forward grip without the edgy feel of pin tyres. The pins on the Prism are slightly smaller than the original Pin Point tyre but there are many more of them, which results in faster and more consistent lap times. The Prism pins have been positioned with the knife edge pointed front to back and side to side for maximum grip and to stay sharp even as they wear down.
JConcepts have introduced a carbon fibre rare shock tower for the use with long configuration rear shocks.

The three standard shock positions remain for quick and steady adjustments on the B6 and B6D kits.
