R1 Wurks B7 Rear Inverted Shock Hardware Set

Following on from its Lowered Rear Tower Set that uses inverted Front Shocks, R1 Wurks has now released a set to invert your rear shocks  on the Team Associated B7.  The set allows you to enhance your tuning capabilities by making inverting your rear shocks quick and easy. Inverting your shocks lowers the centre of gravity and redistributes sprung weight, an adjustment proven to improve handling, especially on high-traction surfaces like carpet.  The kits includes a lightweight carbon tower spacer, precision-machined aluminium shock mounting hardware with black anodised finish, and high-strength grade 10.9 steel hardware.

R1 Wurks B7 Lowered Rear Tower Set with inverted Front Shocks

California based R1 Wurks has produced this Lowered Rear Tower Set that uses inverted Front Shocks and is intended for Team Associated’s B7 1:10 2WD Buggy.  The setup requires the use of an additional set of front-length shocks in the rear, resulting in one of the lightest and lowest centre of gravity rear shock configurations available.  In addition to the significantly reduced CG, it also delivers the performance advantages of inverted shocks, making it an essential upgrade option for high-traction surfaces.  Also the droop remains standard, while uptravel is reduced, ideal for smaller carpet tire diameters.  The set also shifts weight forward to enhance mass centralisation, improving rotation and steering response.
