This Kyosho CL008 centre skid is manufactured as a direct replacement component for the KC10 chassis, acting as a scale RC underbody protector. Positioned centrally beneath the chassis, it protects the frame and provides a reliable contact surface where the model encounters rough ground or track features.
Fitment is specific to the KC10 layout, so confirm your chassis model prior to purchase. The skid is designed to use the KC10's original mounting points and fasteners; no modification to the chassis geometry is necessary for correct fitment.
To install, remove the existing centre skid from the KC10, align the CL008 with the chassis mounting points and secure with the original hardware to the recommended torque. Do not over-tighten as this can deform the mounting bosses.
Regarding setup, the centre skid affects underside clearance and sliding behaviour when the chassis contacts surfaces. Replacing the skid is usually a routine maintenance or setup task to manage wear rather than a method of changing suspension or handling characteristics.
