Schelle B6 flat A-arm front & 31mm rear shock towers

Coming from Schelle Racing Innovations are two new carbon fibre option parts for the Team Associated B6 buggy. First up is the flat A-arm front shock tower and wing mount. The front tower design mates with a 3-D-printed upper wing mount, allowing to screw-on the front wing without removing the shock standoffs. The design also allows to quickly extract the mount without removing the shock standoff screws, as well as remove the wing off the car for travel or cleaning while keeping the mount in place.

The front tower kit comes including suitable hardware and a gullwing A-arm variant will be released soon.
