{"product_id":"rc8-air-filter-hose","title":"RC8 Air Filter Hose","description":"The Team Associated RC8 Air Filter Hose is a genuine OEM replacement part engineered to fit the RC8, RC8T, SC8, RC8B, and RC8.2 nitro platforms. This hose connects the air filter to the carburetor intake, directing clean, filtered air into the engine while helping to keep dirt, dust, and debris out of the fuel system. Maintaining a properly sealed, undamaged air filter hose is important for consistent engine performance and long-term engine health, since a cracked or brittle hose can allow contaminants to bypass the filter. As a factory Team Associated component, this replacement hose is manufactured to match the original fit and dimensions of the part it replaces across all five compatible RC8-family vehicles, allowing for a straightforward swap without modification. It's a practical pickup for nitro racers performing routine maintenance, replacing a hose that has cracked or hardened with age and fuel exposure, or stocking up on spares ahead of a race weekend. Backed by Team Associated's manufacturing standards, this genuine part restores proper air filtration and intake sealing to keep your RC8-platform vehicle running cleanly. Basic hand tools are required for installation.","brand":"Associated","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":50423121805555,"sku":"89140","price":2.99,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0742\/2853\/1443\/files\/89140_md__68487.1741735017.jpg?v=1787020400","url":"https:\/\/cruizinrc.com\/products\/rc8-air-filter-hose","provider":"Cruizin' With R\/C's","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
