WRC GTX intermediate step aluminium body mounts

Coming from Italian company WRC and made for the GTX 1/8th nitro on-road car are intermediate step aluminium body mounts. Machined from aluminium and coming with a high-gloss finish the mounts offer in-between steps for the body height adjustments that are accessible by simply turning the mounts by 90 degree and using the second, lower row of body clip holes. This design makes for finer body height adjustments without the need for additional mounts or parts.
