New Factory Team Parts

[peetbee]

Now it's possible I missed discussion about these parts but, have you seen the other new FT parts for the B4?
FT V2 Slipper Hubs #7485 and FT V2 Slipper Spring and Washer #7486
Can't really see much difference between the originals and the V2 parts, has anyone seen them in the flesh yet and known what's changed?


I'm not convinced about the #9789 SC10/B4 Titanium Front Axles though!

Yes, seen it on the track here in the states and it is much easier to get a proper slipper setting. The spring gives the adjustment a much more linear feeling.

Also on the horizon and ive seen on the track are new aluminum rear hubs with optional degree settings as well as them having the larger outer bearing. They also have different degree inner toe/anti squat blocks of varying degrees.
Most importantly though are the new shocks coming out. The team has been using these to great success and will put ae back in the shock game. Another small change are thicker front steering blocks. New rear wing mounts. Also AE was toying around with trans shimming to better center the motor across the back but it looks like that idea has been abandoned lately.

The new T4.1FT has all these upgrades and guess the B4.1FT will have as well, plus they both have V2 shocks
