Overview
The Tekno RC V2 Adjustable Hinge Pin Brace is the "C" block for the 48-series platforms, CNC machined from 7075 aluminum. This brace clamps the inner hinge pin and transfers suspension loads directly into the chassis, so keeping it stiff and precisely located is one of the cheapest ways to make your car feel consistent through a long race.
The V2 design accepts Tekno RC hinge pin inserts (TKR5165), letting you shim the hinge pin for wheelbase and suspension adjustment without replacing the brace. Anodized and laser etched, it bolts straight onto the EB, NB, ET, NT and SCT chassis families as a direct replacement for the stock block.
