X Factory introduce 3mm carbon fibre hub camber plates for the use with the Team Associated aluminum hub carriers. Coming as a set of four, including a pair of 4-hole plates of standard AE height and two 3-hole plates that are 0.072” lower than standard. The lower ball stud gives the car better balance in corners because it does not shift as much weight to the outside tire. The camber link plates come with black 0.030” spacers to extend the ball stud so the ball cup does not interfere with the hub carrier, and two black locking nuts to secure the ball studs. The plates for all cars that make use of the AE aluminum hub carriers.
