New Avid RC 13mm TLR Shock Bodies

Press Release From Avid RC:
www.avidrc.com

The TLR 13mm shock bodies offer 22 and 22X-4 racers the plush feeling of the larger bodies while utilizing all the other G3 components with 3mm shafts. When Cecil and his team at Schumacher developed the 13mm shock bodies in 2011 for the Cougar SV, the US market didn't take notice because our tracks were so different. The benefits were undeniable though when AE released theirs in the US for their B6.4. 

In 10th scale, pack is not something we strive for like we do in 8th scale. The larger 13mm body allows for less volume displacement under compression which allows for a much more predictable feeling on the track. This is why we have included (2) 2.0mm thin 2x1.5mm pistons for you to get going. With the piston face being larger at 13mm, this requires more oil to be moved so the standard piston configuration of 2x1.5 in the front and 2x1.6 in the rear does not work the same. We recommend starting with 2x1.8 in the front and 2x1.9 in the rear. 

Piston Tips

• We recommend drilling the pistons to 2x1.8 in the front and 2x1.9 in the rear. Avid and AE 13mm pistons will work in these shocks.

Features

• 13mm shock body for TLR 22 and 22X-4 buggies.

• Comes with (2) 2.0mm thick blank 13mm pistons (Recommend 2x1.8 front and 2x1.9 rear).
