Xray XB4 2014 announced
Xray announce the 2014 version of their EFRA European Championship winning XB4 4WD buggy. Based on an all-new chassis frame the buggy now features separate front and rear parts to allow the suspension to be mounted in the standard position using the rear chassis plate or in a lower position directly onto the 7075 aluminium chassis which is the preferred position for low-bite tracks. The 2014 kit further features a new narrow arm design with adjustable flex setting, and a chassis weight balance system for swift weight bias adjustment.
Other new or updated parts include lightweight slipper clutch plates, SLS slipper clutch pads, a stronger slipper spring and reinforced outdrive adapters. In order to cope with with high speed found in today’s 4WD racing the kit also comes with an arrangement of reinforced parts such as the front and rear bulkheads, shock towers, ball joints and diff bevel gears. The kit is rounded out by a front shock tower proctor, new +1mm off-set front rims, a redesigned upperdeck and new shock O-rings.
