This aftermarket full chassis set is engineered for the Associated RC 18T platform and supplies a direct-replacement graphite main plate with precision alloy mounts, a strap-style battery plate, mounting screws and Delrin posts. The layout is optimised for 1/18 scale RC18T models to increase torsional stiffness and tidy component packaging for competitive track setups.
The graphite main plate has a low profile to lower the centre of gravity and works with the alloy motor and suspension mounts to reduce flex and preserve drivetrain alignment under load. The strap battery plate supports common pouch and hard-case packs used in RC18T builds, securing the battery with a mechanical strap to simplify pit-side swaps.
Installation follows standard RC18T procedures: remove the factory plate, install the alloy mounts with the supplied fasteners, and secure the battery with the strap plate and Delrin posts. Service guidance includes verifying thread engagement on alloy components, optional application of threadlocker on metal fasteners, and a motor alignment check before first operation. The set is aimed at hobbyists seeking measurable improvements in chassis balance, ride response and durability on carpet and short outdoor circuits.
A focused aftermarket solution providing a firmer graphite foundation and durable alloy mounting points for hobbyists and tuners who prioritise setup precision and predictable chassis performance.
