JConcepts release new B6 & B64-series option parts

Coming from JConcepts are several new option parts for the B6 and B64 series of off-road buggies. First up are short and long Fin-series titanium shock stand-offs. Designed to replace the standard parts and featuring a lightweight design with built-in threads for easier shock angle adjustments, the 7mm hex based design allows adjustment with the most popular wrench in the R/C arsenal but also tapers down featuring the Fin treatment found on the JConcepts turnbuckles. The stand-offs are available in short and long variants for the front and rear of the B6 and B64 buggies and each 2-piece set includes two 3x8mm BHCS to secure the stand-offs to the shock tower. The standard 3mm locknut is used to finalise the assembly and secure the shock into position. The Delrin shock stand-off bushings are also available separately as a 4-piece set.
