If you’ve ever snapped a shock tower on your Baja 5B/T/SC then you might want to take a look at these new, super beefy towers from Team Chase.  In the picture to the right you can see a stock shock tower at the top and Team Chase’s redesigned and much stronger tower below.  Beyond the redesign, Team Chase is molding the pieces in their proprietary plastic blend which should provide Baja bashers with the strength they need to keep their Baja in one piece.

Keep an eye on Team Chase’s website for more info, all Team Chase parts are distributed by TGN.

Dan Fischer from Kershaw Designs dropped by the RC Driver Live show today to show off a bunch of new products and custom rigs. The biggest news from the show is Kershaw’s new Baja 5B/5T dedicated brushless chassis. The new chassis is going to be distributed through TGN Distributing. According to Dan it’s going to be a relatively easy swap, just take the front and rear ends off your 5B and bolt them straight on to the new brushless chassis. One of the big advantages over using a normal brushless conversion is the weight. This new chassis will shave over a pound off the total weight.

Dan also took the time to show off their 1/5 scale brushless buggy, the Grenadier III (top pic of this post). It features a 4wd drive train that can easily be converted to 2wd and you have a choice of using a E-Revo transmission with 2 speed option or a Savage transmission with 3 speed standard and a reverse option. You can expect to pay around 900 bigguns for this and the wait is three to four months. Check out the product page on the Kershaw site for more info about this buggy.

If you’ve ever taken on the massive undertaking that is painting a 1/5 scale body then you know just how time (and paint) consuming it can be.  Well Thunder Designs, by way of TGN Distributing, has made decorating your HPI Baja 5B body as easy as peel-n-stick with their Swoop Design and Militant body skins.  Both designs are available in multiple colors and provide coverage of the entire body, the chassis, and the wing.  One of these awesome skins will set you back about 60 bones, but the convenience and ease-of-use may be more than worth the cost.
