Exotek D413 aluminium & steel suspension options
New from Exotek and made for the HB D413 1/10th scale 4WD off-road buggy are 10 degree C-hubs, 12mm front locking alloy hexes and high tolerance flanged bushings. Starting with the castor hubs, the heavy duty 7075 aluminium and precision machined parts weigh it at only 5.5 grams per piece and they are much stronger and stiffer than the stock plastic hubs, for optimum suspension action and reduced play. They come polished and anodised in factory orange. The hubs match the stock geometry and accommodate a, not included, set screw for the hinge pin.
Next up are the alloy 12mm front locking hexes for the D413. Their special design uses a flush M2 screw to hold the drive pins in place; a simple solution that secures the drive pins to stay in place once the wheels are off. The hexes come orange anodised, laser-etched and in a set of two. Last but not least are the high tolerance flanged steering bushings. The parts are machined to be tighter fitting than the stock bushing to eliminate the play associated with the stock parts while the hard steel material with titanium nitride finish makes for smooth and long lasting performance.
