JConcepts introduce RC10T carbon fibre option parts

Following yesterday’s introduction of the Ford F-150 bodyshell for the vintage Team Associated RC10T stadium truck, JConcepts have more options for the popular truck available. Coming soon are 3.0mm front and rear carbon fibre shock towers as well as a 2.5mm carbon fibre transmission brace, all of which are made from high-quality material. The shock towers are designed to replace the standard fibre glass units and offer improved rigidity for upped suspension efficiency while also adding visual impact and that factory look. As for the transmission brace, the part also adds rigidity and it makes for less rear end tweak and bending issues by replacing the stock composite part. The shock towers and rear transmission brace are direct replacements for the standard parts and they fit all RC10T models.

JConcepts RC10T Ford F-150 truck bodyshell

Available soon from JConcepts is the Ford F-150 bodyshell for Team Associated’s vintage RC10T truck. Back in the early 1990’s stadium truck were the next big thing and the RC10T gained massive popularity that still lives on today. Because of this and the ever rising interest in vintage racing, JConcepts have introduced the officially licensed F-150 body. It is narrow and sits close against the chassis to give racers the Team Truck look popular in the 1990’s. The styling is completely modelled after the most popular full-size truck of that era, the 1993 Ford F-150. The entire body shape has been chiselled, incorporating styling cues from the full-scale truck including wheel well shapes, door lines, window outlines and rear tailgate. The front-end sits just behind the front bumper while the headlight and grille area looks strikingly stock and with included decal sheet, looks like its street truck counterpart. The RC10T body is moulded in a durable gauge material and includes rear spoiler, mounting hardware and decal sheet to completely outfit a vintage ride.
