Yokomo release Limited Edition YD-2SXIII

Yokomo have released two limited edition versions of their recently released YD-2SXIII drift chassis. Due to user requests, the Japanese company will offer limited edition models with bright red or purple anodised parts, with the front and rear shock towers, SLF shocks, and a special 7-step adjustable motor mount, the front integrated bulkhead and slide rack base all receiving the colour treatment. The specifications of the chassis are the same as the standard black version, such as the double-deck chassis which greatly improves the pitching rigidity. We are told that the coloured parts are not available separately so the only way to get them is by obtaining one of these limited kits.

JConcepts Colt 1.9” chrome beadlock wheel

Following up on their all black Colt 1.9” beadlock crawler wheel, JConcepts have released a chrome alternative. The cleverly designed beadlock alternative for 1.9” tyres features 8 triangle spokes that provide a Wagon look which is perfect for vintage builds and trucks that need a raw muscle look of the 1970’s and 80’s. Dipping into the assembly, the Colt wheels assemble from the inside out and include an inner pinch ring which helps lock the two halves together. The outside of the wheel has the 12mm hex already blended into the design while supplying a sturdy wheel offset capable of taming an assortment of terrain. The final look arrives after the completed assembly is secured on the truck and the centre cap is placed into position with included screws. The centre cap covers all wheel nut and fitment territory and leaves the look of the wheel clean and stylised. The wheels are molded in a durable material and they come as pairs.
