RDRP 1/10th Durango Ti shock mounts & wheel axles

Revolution Design Racing Products announce the release of two new option parts for the Team Durango 210 and 410 series of off-road vehicles. First up is the Titanium Shock Mount Long, a part that is designed to replace the kit’s original steel shock mount or the screw, nut and plastic cap construction found on the newer 1/10th kits. The shock mount is of a 1-piece quick release design to allow for fast and easy setup changes by simply undoing the fastening nut on the shock tower and relocating the shock. The simplified design incorporates much less parts than the stock mount, looks better and is much more reliable due to the high-strength titanium material used. The shock mount is a direct replacement for the kit parts and fits all Team Durango 1/10th off-road vehicles such as the ‘210 and ‘410 series buggies and trucks.

RPM Slash 4×4 caster & spindle blocks

RPM Slash 4x4 caster & spindle blocks

RPM introduce these caster and spindle blocks for Traxxas Slash 4×4 based vehicles. They are designed to increase the strength and durability of the front axle assembly not only by making use of PRM’s well-known nylon material but also by sporting a completely new design. The core design of the caster blocks revolve around the lower-case ‘H’ structure which provides extreme rigidity to keep camber and caster setting locked in place while running normally while the used material provides extra toughness when needed. The blocks are usable on all Traxxas Slash 4×4 based vehicles including the Stampede 4×4 and 1/10th Rally car.
