Schumacher CAT PB Shock Tower Conversion Sets

Schumacher has introduced three new Shock Tower Conversion Sets for their CAT PB 1:10 4WD Buggy.  The shock tower conversion for the front of the CAT PB has been used at the Florida Carpet Champs and the EOS in Daun to great success.  This system allows the user to adjust not only shock tower height but camber width as well. The Benefits are being able to choose a standard height shock or lower mounted shock limiting up travel and lowering the Centre of Gravity.  The Camber straps go from 43mm (kit) to 46mm and then 50mm being the widest. This is allowing the chassis to be stiffened in roll with the wider the strap, allowing the CAT PB to become even more responsive while staying flat. The Geometry changes have been run over the last 6 months by our Factory team and proven these are worthwhile changes.  The Rear Shock Tower ‘Low Grip’ Conversion Set, has been used by the British manufacturer race team around the world who found the narrow strap option very helpful. This change will be lengthening the link length and will soften the car in roll.  This will benefit the CAT PB’s on power steering allowing the rear to roll more while accelerating through high speed corners.  The ‘High Grip’ Rear Shock Tower Conversion allows you to lower the shocks and wing down lowering the centre of gravity but not increasing droop.  By the addition of the wishbone plates we are able to keep the shock rates the same but with that the stiffness’s across the wishbone have altered. With the Lower shocks and Wing in these positions the car corners much flatter, this will require a softer setup on the rear on some surfaces to compensate.
