Coming from ID.RC is a new piston sleeve remover tool for 3.5cc nitro engines. The tool is of a simple yet effective design as the inner screw-type part interlocks with the sleeve’s timing windows while the outer body braces itself against the upper portion of the crankcase. Sturdy knurled handles on both the screw insert and outer body allow to extract the sleeve with minimal force and without harming the sleeve or crankcase.
Coming from Vigor and made for the Yokomo BD10 touring car is a new 1-piece A front suspension mount.

Coming from Xray and made for the T4 series of touring cars are new aluminium steering blocks with carbon fibre Ackermann plates. The steering blocks feature an ultra-strong construction that provides a very long life and durability in even the most extreme racing conditions. Composite bushings are used to secure the ball bearings in place which allows the bearings to fit perfectly and spin freely, giving much higher lifetime compared to bearings installed directly into aluminium steering blocks. The graphite extensions mount to the steering block and features the same Ackermann position as the standard composite steering block, however the extensions can be mounted either from the top or bottom. The alloy steering blocks are recommended for high traction conditions as they improve stability and makes the car turn smoother. In addition to using them up front they also fit the rear ARS kit where they allow greater toe in/out gain adjustment possibilities. The set includes the steering blocks, steering plates, ball bearing bushings as well as ball races.
