RC18T RC18R Aluminium Rear Hub Carrier RC18-010/BU for Team Associated by 3Racing  [RC18-010/BU]

Aluminium rear hub carrier for RC18 series

This aluminium rear hub carrier is manufactured by 3Racing and engineered to fit Team Associated RC18T and RC18R chassis as a direct replacement on 1/18 scale models. The notes explain compatibility, fitting guidance, and how the part helps with consistent rear geometry control without promising specific gains.

Compatibility notes: the carrier is intended only for Team Associated RC18T and RC18R models. Replace worn stock items or swap to a metal hub carrier to alter the structural behaviour of the rear suspension. The CNC style aluminium provides stable mounting points compared with typical plastic parts.

Installation steps: remove rear wheels and separate the hub assembly per your chassis service routine, move bearings and any required hardware from the original carrier to the aluminium piece, and reassemble while watching bearing preload and endplay. Standard hex drivers and setup tools are sufficient; double check torque values and alignment afterwards.

Tuning impact: changing to an aluminium carrier modifies the hub mounting stiffness and rear wheel location which can affect toe and camber under load. Use this component when you want repeatable alignment and to experiment with rear-end setup changes.
