SpeedMerchant Gen-XL in-line conversion kit

Having received many requests to make an in-line conversion for the CRC Gen-XL, SpeedMerchant have now released that kit. Much like their Xray 12th conversion, this kit allows you to mount the battery in-line on the left or right side, or across the back like normal, but with more for/aft adjustability than stock. When drawing up the conversion, it quickly became apparent that the cleanest, easiest and strongest design would be to box in the rear pod with a new Top Plate, and give the car a full length tweak brace. This allows the battery to sit further back in the chassis and stiffens the rear end of the car. By adding a matching motor/pod plate on the left side they really strengthened the rear pod area which increases durability as well as helping your rear axle stay perfectly aligned after a misadventure with an immovable object. They have also added mounting holes so you can adjust shock length for finer on track tuning. The kit comes with almost everything you need to convert your CRC Gen-XL, including main chassis, tweak brace, top plate and two battery brace/shock mounts as well as SpeedMerchant linear tweak spring set, stand-offs, ball-studs and all the required hardware to complete the conversion.
