Default New Cougar 2 Works parts !!!!!!!!!!

So after getting a New Cougar 2 Works chassis in packet, I have also been able to gain the following new in packet parts for the Cougar 2 Works, including a mod we used to do on the front wheels. This was called a 2WD Twin Track Mod this was 2 bearings in the hub rather than just the standard 1. This would prevent the wheels from play/wobble with the aid of the double bearings.Shown in last picture.

Very nice - well Jealous! (especially of your chassis)

I've got the twin bearing mod on my Works - really helps take out the slop in the front wheels

What is this twin bearing mod?

Didn't a lot of people use RC10 caster blocks, steering arms and wheels back in the day?

Hi Northy,

Yes that was something else that was done 25 degree cast with hubs RC10 off the Team car.with RC10 wheels....... But also the 2WD Twin track was used.

Its basically 2 bearings in the front hub, When I start the build I will high light this part so all can see.

Twin bearing mod Vs standard - the bearing mod also widens the track slightly.

Default Works vs Team shock towers !!!!!!

After some careful examination of the shock towers between the Works and Team plus new carbon towers of fybre lyte reproductions there is a few changes between them.

The Team rear tower has 6 holes for shock positions.
The Works rear tower has 5,,,,, 3 at bottom and 2 at the top, also the cut shape of the Works rear tower is different to the Team.

Fybre Lyte make carbon towers but these are the Team versions. Do you know if they make the Works version of the rear tower. Have any of you had them made...... as they only show one type of tower on the site (Team).
