In 1/18 scale racing, the C-block (front-rear) and D-block (rear-rear) hold the inner hinge pins for the rear suspension arms. While stock plastic blocks are fixed, this aluminum set allows you to swap the included plastic "pills" (inserts) to change the angle of the hinge pins. This lets you increase rear toe for more stability on loose dirt or decrease it for more rotation on high-bite carpet.
Detailed Technical Specifications
1. CNC-Machined 7075-T6 Aluminum
-
Rock-Solid Foundation: Aluminum blocks eliminate the "flex" found in plastic pivots. This ensures that your rear suspension geometry stays perfectly consistent even under the massive torque of brushless motors.
-
Crash Resilience: The D-block is the most rearward point of the suspension and often takes the brunt of rear impacts. These aluminum blocks are nearly indestructible compared to the stock composite parts.
2. Eccentric Insert System ("Pills")
-
Precision Toe Adjustment: By swapping the composite inserts, you can adjust the rear toe-in in 0.5° or 1.0° increments.
-
Anti-Squat Tuning: Changing the vertical orientation of the inserts allows you to adjust "Anti-Squat," which controls how much the rear end "squats" or "lifts" under acceleration, directly affecting forward traction over bumps.
3. Professional Racing Geometry
-
Low-Friction Interface: The composite inserts provide a smooth, low-friction bearing surface for the hinge pins, ensuring the rear arms move freely without "binding."
-
Laser-Etched Branding: Features the iconic TLR logo and "C/D" markings for easy identification during a quick pit-side teardown.
