Also available are two-piece pivot blocks R/F with 0.5 degree and 1.0 degree setting. The split design provides extra flex on lower grip surfaces by allowing the front and rear end of the chassis to twist easier than with single-piece designs. All parts fit the TCXX and the TCX kit. The gear diff outdrive set includes steel front outdrives required for running a gear diff upfront. The drive cups have a thinner slot than the rears to accommodate the 2mm drive pin without the use of a drive blade.
