Reds Racing Durabell 13T & 14T clutch bells

Coming from Reds Racing are their new Durabell series 13T and 14T clutch bells for TLR and Tekno cars. The clutch bells are made of high-quality steel and the special coating treatment allows the teeth to last longer compared to standard clutch bells, transferring power from the clutch to the spur gear and the rest of the drive train with consistency and reliability. A special vented design also guarantees lower temperatures and cleaner clutch shoe engagement for a longer life of both bell and clutch shoes. The inner diameter of the bell is 26.6mm and it uses a 5x10x4mm front and 5x13x4mm rear bearing.

LMR Slider carbon fibre ride height gauge tool

LMR have introduced their new Slider carbon fibre “twister type” ride height gauge tool. Running lower ride heights with 1/10th scale buggies and trying to slide a ride height gauge underneath and backwards and forwards can often cause issues when fingers get in the way, bumping into the car while trying to set the ride height. The carbon fibre slider increases precision and makes checking ride height far easier as it takes a twister-type ride height gauge that can easily be slid under the chassis plate while checking and adjusting front and rear ride height.

JConcepts rubber bump stops for monster trucks

JConcepts have released an 8-piece set of rubber bump stops for the suspension of monster trucks. In the world of RC monster trucks, its all about suspension travel. Drivers jockey for improved suspension with unique setups, conversions and shock combinations. The position of the shocks have a huge affect on performance and while more travel can help, sometimes a cushion or soft stop at the end can really smooth out the ride. JConcepts now offers a rubber bump stop which works with any combination of 3 and 3.5mm shock shaft diameters. The stop is T-shaped in design which allows the builder to place the large diameter end where more support is needed. With a solid axle beast, sometimes it is necessary to limit the up-stroke of the shock to prevent chassis, body or tyre damage. The shape also allows cushion and some fold under high impact situations as an additional benefit. The stops are 10mm in length but can be trimmed to any desired length or to suit a specific purpose. 8 pieces are included per package which is handy for outfitting multiple trucks or one truck with additional shocks.
