Associated RC 18T Graphite Main Plate Kit GAR050AMC by GPM  [GAR050AMC]

Overview of the RC18T graphite main plate

This aftermarket full chassis set fits the Associated RC 18T platform and supplies a direct-replacement graphite main plate with alloy motor and suspension mounts, a strap battery plate, mounting screws and Delrin posts. The design suits 1/18 scale RC18T cars and is intended to enhance chassis stiffness and component arrangement for track-oriented setups.

The slim graphite plate couples with the included alloy mounts to keep drivetrain alignment and reduce flex where drivers commonly tune for improved steering precision. The strap battery plate is made to accept common pouch or hard-case batteries used on RC18T vehicles and secures packs using a mechanical strap to make battery swaps quicker.

Installation follows a familiar sequence for RC18T builders: remove the factory plate, transfer or install the alloy mounts with the supplied screws, then secure the battery with the strap plate and Delrin posts. Follow normal maintenance routines: check alloy thread engagement, use threadlocker on metal fasteners if desired, and verify motor alignment before first use. The set is targeted at hobbyists adjusting chassis balance, ride quality and durability on carpet and short-course circuits using Associated RC 18T cars.

This direct-fit aftermarket chassis gives RC18T owners a firmer graphite foundation and durable alloy mounting points to refine handling and component layout for more consistent performance at the track.
