Xray XB2 2017 Carpet Edition 2WD buggy kit

Xray have introduced the 2017 edition of their successful XB2 Carpet Edition kit. The buggy received some subtle updates with the most visible being the new “right hand” motor position and new 3-gear transmission to increase traction, steering and high-speed stability. The redesigned gearbox houses a new, large 36T idler gear moulded from high-quality graphite material that ensures a minimal weight and highest strength. To match with the new transmission housing and motor position the ’17 kit comes with an all-new 7075-T6 aluminium heavy duty motor plate.

Next in the line of changes to the 2017 buggy come reinforced I.S.S. suspension holders. Usable with the included composite bushings the RR mount is of an updated, more sturdy design to make sure the suspension settings remain unchanged even in severe racing action. The kit is rounded out by new, moulded Delrin shock pistons in 2-hole 1.6mm and 1.7mm configuration. The parts are conveniently marked for easy identification and help to fine-tune the suspension settings. Otherwise the proven kit remains unchanged meaning it comes with a black anodised 7075-T6 aluminium chassis, carbon fibre shock towers, aluminium big-bore shock absorbers and hard composite suspension plastics.
