Tightening up the suspension on the Slash 4x4 is now as simple as adding JConcepts accessories. The stock front and rear shock tower on the Slash 4x4 is somewhat flexible, bulky and unresponsive to suspension changes. JConcepts takes the Slash 4x4 to the next level by offering complete front and rear shock tower conversions set to install carbon fiber struts to the suspension. Each set includes a genuine 4.0mm carbon fiber tower, machined aluminum body mount adaptor, machined aluminum shock stand-offs and fastening hardware to complete the package.

Once installed, the glamour is the first feature to hit the eyes but adjustments are the key as the stout design allows for easy camber-link, shock positioning adjustments and the precise feel of the assembly is felt on the race track. The JConcepts set is proven as a key upgrade to use on the Scalpel conversion kit, and also added performance as a high performance 4x4 short course beast. Take the Slash 4x4 up a notch and go carbon fiber with JConcepts.
