JConcepts CF Battery Braces, SC10 Body Brace and Rear Hub Towers
JConcepts has released a range of carbon fibre upgrades for the Team Associated range of models starting with battery braces. The Monroe battery brace by JConcepts is highly functional and aesthetic eye-candy, designed from genuine 2.5mm carbon fibre, it performs as good as it looks. With so much variety in today’s batteries and with most vehicles having a flexible mounting position forward and aft, functionality is always a top priority. With the Monroe battery brace, running different battery positions is possible while maintaining the necessary terminal clearance and providing a healthy holding force to keep everything in tact even in the most demanding conditions or the inevitable crash. The voluptuous shape, combined with exotic material and surface finish, tops off an all important look to the vehicle from the inside out. For best results use JC #2160 or AE #1787 thumb screws for the most secure placement and quickest installation.
Second up is a rear body brace for the SC10 as the standard body mount is very flexible. This provides several durability advantages, but when it comes to performance, having a sturdy base to the body is critical. JConcepts rear SC10 body mount brace performs just as the description suggests and supports the body mount in high-force situations.
While in the turns, the weight of the body hangs down in the rear and allows the body to flex toward the tyres which cause unwanted handling and aero changes which may contribute to an ill handling vehicle.
The final item in the range are these rear hub towers – one of the more critical adjustments on the rear of the Associated 1:10 off-road vehicles. Associated conveniently makes three different bolt-on rear hub towers for these vehicles in the A, B and C configuration. JConcepts now offers the A, B and C hub towers in carbon fibre. Each tower is machined with identification bumps near the outer edge with one bump identifying the A tower, two bumps for B and three bumps for C.
