T-Work’s keeps expanding its 1/8 off-road range

T-Work’s, the Taiwanese hop-up specialist, has just released two new parts back-to-back for 1/8 off-road racers: one for the Team Associated RC8T4.2 truggy, the other for the Kyosho Inferno MP11 buggy.

Steel center driveshafts for the RC8T4.2 and RC8T4.2e

For the nitro RC8T4.2, T-Work’s offers an 86.5mm front center driveshaft and a 170mm rear one; the electric RC8T4.2e gets its own dimensions, at 104mm front and 152mm rear. Machined from high-quality steel, these driveshafts aim to improve drivetrain efficiency and durability over the stock parts, sold as full sets or separately.

Aluminium diff gear box inserts for the MP11

For the nitro Kyosho Inferno MP11 buggy and its electric MP11e version, T-Work’s introduces black-anodised 7075-T6 aluminium diff gear box inserts. Precision-machined, they hold the differential and ring gear in place to prevent play over time, with three height settings (high, mid, low) depending on mounting orientation. They are offered as set A, set B, or a complete set combining both.

A platform-by-platform strategy

These two releases confirm T-Work’s‘ approach, developing its option ranges chassis by chassis rather than as isolated parts, letting drivers build up their own level of upgrades.
