RC10 1989 Stealth, Forged Carbon Fiber Front Shock Tower, Short – Blue

The RC10 1989 Stealth, one of the most sought-after classics which was never released to the public, is now readily available. JConcepts has jumped on this new vehicle with a list of accessories and option parts including carbon fiber and aluminum hop-up parts. The team from Groveland, Florida has adapted forged carbon fiber in blue to this vehicle as debuted by Ryan Maifield during the 2025 Team Associated Vintage Championship. 

The vision was simple, adapt RC10B7 front 13mm shocks to this vehicle and shorten the front tower for a more streamlined look, fit, and finish. At the JConcepts factory, designer’s mocked-up angles, and hole locations to work with readily available equipment to serve form and function. The RC10B7 front shocks (available separately) work exceptionally well thanks to tuning by Ryan Maifield and the JConcepts team. The items used on this setup are listed below and available separately from Team Associated. 

The new forged material in 3.0mm material has worked out well for base material on this project providing durability and flexibility for loose or bumpy track conditions. The team outlined the proper fitment and replicated this to drop down on the Stealth buggy in the exact stock locations on the bulkhead. The inner camber link hole has been recessed for potential use of 5.5mm ball-studs to help clear steering geometry. The forged carbon fiber stands out and works hand in hand with additional JConcepts accessories or stock components. The CNC machined item has a JC logo machined into carbon for authenticity.
