Avid titanium lower shock pin screws

Avid’s new titanium lower shock pin screws are designed to remove the concern of forgetting your shock pin set screw and having your arm dangling before the race is over. This pin screw set offers 2 left and 2 right-handed threaded pin screws with a 5.5mm socket head so you only need to grab one wrench when taking your shocks off. As if that wasn’t enough already, we also included the Avid innovated centre-drilled hole for easy docking of your callipers while measuring your shock lengths. Pin screws are sold as set and are available now for HB, Mugen, and Xray, with the AE cars coming very soon!

Introducing an innovative new wheel design from Pro-Line, the Holcomb. Give your 1.9″ scale crawler a unique, retro-inspired look.
