Serpent Spyder 2WD Short Course Truck kit

Serpent introduce their first ever Short Course Truck in the form of the Spyder 2WD SCT. Based off the popular Spyder SRX2 line of buggies, the truck shares many design ideas such as the unique front steering block design, the adjustable rear differential height and the 3-pad slipper clutch. Based on a long wheelbase composite chassis the truck is a purpose-designed rear motor vehicle, ideal for all low to medium traction tracks. Long travel 12mm big bore threaded aluminium shock absorbers and race geometry suspension arms make for maximum on-track performance while polycarbonate inserts in the wide nerf bars keep as much air as possibly away from the inside of the bodyshell to reduce the unwanted parachute effect SC trucks are known for during jumping. Other features include suspension block inserts for the C-hubs and rear A-arm holders and uprights, spring steel turnbuckles and wheel axles, a limited slip ball differential and an aerodynamic SCT body with side damps. The truck is set for a mid-June release.

More STRC B5 & B5M aluminium option parts

ST Racing Concepts have more aluminium option parts for the Team Associated B5 and B5M buggy available. First up is the rear chassis brace/camber link mount for the rear motor B5. Cut from high-quality aluminium, the camber link mount also helps with adding a bit more weight to the rear of the buggy when conditions call for a tad more rear traction. The rear camber link mount is also available as a variant for the mid motor B5M and retains all factory suspension geometry and ball stud locations.

Serpent Spyder aluminium C-hubs & uprights

Serpent have new option parts for the Spyder SRX2 RM and MM buggy available in the form of aluminium C-hubs and uprights. Starting with the C-hubs, the black anodised parts feature additional roll centre settings and are of greater strength than the kit’s plastic hubs. The parts are usable with the standard composite inserts and include 2 special length threaded ball joints that prevent the ball cups from popping off in the event of a crash. Also new are aluminium rear uprights. Like the C-hubs the parts offer added durability, improved looks and additional ball stud mounting positions. The uprights come as pair and include new ball studs.

Exotek have new aluminium option parts for the TLR 22-4 4WD buggy available in the form of a steering servo mount and two different steering horns. Starting with the servo mount, the part is light of weight, sleek and yet stronger than the stock composite mount for a more rigid mounting of the steering servo and a more direct steering response. Also new are two steering horns, again made from high-quality aluminium. Available as type A or B the horns feature a grub screw to securely fasten them to the steering bellcrank and, like the servo mount, the parts are available in black or yellow colour.
