RC-Project have released three new items for the SWorkz S35-4 starting with this 15g front/rear weight. Made of black PVD coated brass, it fits perfectly without touching any other components and leaves the necessary space to prevent binding in the chassis. Thanks to its twin holes it can be mounted on the rear / front of the car. Next up are two different sets of delrin bushings for the brake cams and for in the Ackerman plate. The bushings offer tight tolerances to ensure a perfect coupling, eliminating play while reducing maintenance and eliminating the problem of unpleasant bearing failures.
NathoBuilds titanium lower arm studs are a great way to help you maintain your 1/10th buggy, truck or drag car more effectively, without the worry of stripping out screws on the lower shock. The hex design sports a flange neck that will allow you to firmly grip the stud, which will firmly tighten the arm and moves the shocks 3mm forward in the car, giving you more clearance from the spring to the turnbuckle. This design also improves cars handling on low and high bite surface.

Xray have produced this graphite moulded composite C-hub for right & left steering block on the XB4 & XT4. The specially-formulated graphite composite material is a perfect balance between reliability and performance. With the caster pre-set at 6° the roll centre position can be quickly & easily adjusted by inserting different thickness shims atop the caster block, between the block and vertical ball stud. This graphite C-hub is suitable for most track conditions, especially for high- and very-high-traction tracks. Large openings allow for quick & easy assembly/disassembly of the CVDs meaning the entire CVD assembly can be easily inserted/removed through the C-hub without the need for disassembly. The large openings also prevent jamming of the CVD within the C-hub during serious crashes.
