The updated 22-4 2.0 from TLR adds refinements to this successful platform that will make it easier to drive and maintain. First up there are all-new, low maintenance gear differentials are designed narrow, so there is no need to compromise the inner pivot or roll centre widths. Besides providing improved performance on all types of surfaces, the gear diffs can be accurately and consistently tuned using diff fluid. Their cases are machined from 7075-T6 aluminium but they do not weigh any more than stock ball diffs.
Converting to the 22 offset, rear hub geometry has widened the rear track width, creating more stability in the rear end so racers can push the car harder with confidence. The 22 rear hub is paired with a vertical mount, rear camber block that provides multiple adjustments that allow the rear roll centre to be optimised for any conditions.
The chassis and guards are designed to accommodate a variety of battery configurations. A shorty pack can be mounted forward or backward on the left side of the chassis using the moulded locator. Saddle packs can be mounted with one half on each side of the chassis. When using a saddle pack, the left side can be moved fore or aft to adjust weight bias.
The kit comes standard with 12.5-degree aluminium caster blocks, a 2.5-degree rear toe plate, a pink rear anti-roll bar, a vertical ball stud rear camber block, front and rear CVAs and a cab-forward body. The centre belt cover now be removed without having to remove the rear belt cover, whilst CVA driveshafts are now included with the 2.0. The aluminium main chassis plate has been CNC machined for optimal fit and flex. Milled pockets in the chassis reduce weight, including an open pocket under the motor that reduces temps.
