For you die-hard AE drivers that like to push your RC8.2 or RC8.2e to the limits, AVID RC has released a set of trick looking hard anodized aluminum shock towers.
AVID RC has tweaked the towers slightly, basically including all the special modifications the pros are using on their towers. These parts fit every Team Associated RC8 version ever, however it is recommended to only use the front tower in conjunction with the new AE vertical spindle system. The stock molded caster blocks do not offer the support for the camber link mod.
Specs
• CNC machined 7075 hard-anodized aluminum with the appealing chamfered edge look.
• Designed for use with a front camber link modification (suggest using with the AE Vertical Spindle Set).
• Fine tuning of the rear roll center by offering a tighter set of camber link positions, including the popular 0 hole modification.
• Clearance for the larger HB/GHEA shock caps and Kyosho shocks.
• Shock tower set weights 47.9g (Stock aluminum towers weight 54.6g, Carbon 40.6g)
