Alternative Impact new product release

[alt]

New for this season we will be using a different material in the a arm department. Docol R8 is something that has been around for several years but is used mostly in the racing Industry. Some of the benefits include 10 to 15% stronger, safe non-brittle break mode meaning it does not tend to crack when bent like 4130 does. Docol was engineered to provide a stronger more consistent alternative to 4130 tube. Be sure to check the website we have other new products for the axys chassis most of which is in stock or will be in the next 4-6 weeks. Hope everyone's having a great summer, winter is just around the corner when you think about it. Thanks!

Will the increased strength still allow the arm to be the weaker link thus preventing bulkhead/tunnel damage?

The pro-axys chassis is pretty rugged as far as the bulkhead it's the tunnel a guy needs to be concerned with. I reccomend tunnel braces which we should have by October. Even the stock arms can bend the tunnel but with the way these are designed the rod end is the key to taking the brunt of an impact. In most cases it's going to bend first but again tunnel braces can save a guy a lot of grief.

Have you seen a bent tunnel on an axys rmk?
I've seen torn in half trail sled tunnels.
Right by the chaincase.
