NEW! 16 Degree KPI Conversion for RC8B4.1 and RC8B4.1e buggies
Monday, January 20, 2025
(Pictured: #81675 RC8B4.1 to RC8B3 16 Degree KPI Conversion Kit)
Team Associated engineers added an option to tune the front end with either the kit 8 Degree KPI or the optional RC8B3 16 Degree KPI. All 3 parts needed for a nitro or electric buggy conversion are included in the conversion kit #81675. With the addition of the parts purchased a la carte, racers can also try the optional 16 Degree KPI on the RC8T4 Truggy.
Each KPI setting has its own strengths and weaknesses, with the 16 Degree KPI excelling in cases where racers need a less responsive front end that will resist direction change as you power through chop and bumps. It can be an advantage in any case where you struggle to have the front end overpower the rear (usually in bumpy lower grip).
16 Degree KPI Conversion Kit Features:Contains 16 Degree KPI Parts: Aluminum Front Shock Tower, RC8B3 Steering Blocks, RC8B4 Upper Link Mount and Instruction Supplement
