Associated RC 18T 43mm Titanium Dog Bone by GPM TAR2043  [TAR2043]

Titanium dog bone for RC18T driveline

This 43mm titanium dog bone is an RC-scale driveline part produced by GPM for use with the Associated RC 18T platform. It is intended as a direct-replacement front/rear dog bone that preserves the original driveline geometry while changing the material to titanium.

The part supports basic tuning goals: reducing unwanted shaft flex under load, maintaining consistent driveline response lap to lap, and resisting wear compared with typical steel options. Because this is a scale-model component the focus is on improving drivetrain consistency and predictable handling without altering chassis geometry.

Installation is straightforward for anyone familiar with 18T maintenance: remove the existing dog bone from the axle and differential cups, inspect the mating holes and ball bearings for wear, then install the replacement dog bone and verify free rotation through the suspension travel. Check hex screw torque and bearing fitment after a short test run to confirm correct seating.

Use this part when you need a durable, low-flex replacement for front or rear dog bones on Team Associated RC18T cars, for track tuning or routine maintenance. The item is supplied as one pair as indicated in the product name.
