Xceed rim reamer & 3-in-1 tool

Xceed have two new tools available in the form of a rim reamer for 1/8th on-road wheels as well as a 3-in-1 turnbuckle and ball cup wrench. Starting with the reamer, the tool is designed to slightly widen the wheel axle hole of 1/8th on-road wheels to make for a better fitment on the wheel axle and thus faster and more easy pitstops. The tool is made from high-quality springsteel and green anodised aluminium. Also new is the ball cup remover and turnbuckle wrench. Designed for the use with small ball cups as well as 3mm and 4mm turnbuckles the tool helps to easily pop-off ball cups from the ball joints while the stepped design of the turnbuckle portion does away with the need to carry different size tools. The wrench is made from laser-etched high-quality spring steel.

JConcepts B5 series Finnisher front & rear wings

JConcepts have a range of new front and rear wing for the Team Associated B5 series of buggies available. First up is the 6.5″ Finnisher rear wing for B5M buggies. The wing features a high-attack design with trimable rear gurney options and it offers a radical, edgy design which functions and compliments the Finnisher and Silencer body design. The wing mounts low on the vehicle allowing for a lower centre of gravity which is important in high-grip conditions. The lightweight wing features reinforcement ribs to increase lateral stiffness throughout the centre while the hi-clearance areas built into the side-dams allow for rear tyre movement and growth. Cut lines are included for easy trimming while wing mount dimples are included for a drop-fit onto the popular B5M vehicle.
