Frequently Asked Questions
- What is the purpose of spring perches and rod ends in RC suspension? — Spring perches mount the suspension springs onto the shock absorber shaft, while rod ends connect the shock to the vehicle chassis. Together, they form critical connection points that transmit all suspension forces between the wheels and the chassis. Worn or damaged perches and rod ends can result in loose connections, inconsistent suspension geometry, and unpredictable handling characteristics.
- How do I know if my spring perches and rod ends need replacing? — Signs of wear include visible cracks in the perch material, excessive play or movement where the rod end connects to the chassis, uneven vehicle ride height, or inconsistent suspension behaviour during cornering or braking. If you've had a crash or hard impact, inspecting these components for damage is essential before your next run.
- Will this set work with my ARRMA RC car? — This set is specifically designed for ARRMA vehicles with 11mm bore, 15mm external diameter shock absorbers. Check your shock specifications to confirm compatibility. The set is listed as compatible with numerous ARRMA models including the FURY 223S, GORGON, GRANITE 223S, INFRACTION, QUAKE, SENTON, TYPHON, and VORTEKS series vehicles.
- What's the difference between the 8mm and 15mm spring spacers? — Spring spacers adjust the preload on your suspension springs, which affects ride height and spring rate characteristics. The 8mm spacers provide less preload adjustment, whilst the 15mm spacers allow more aggressive preload tuning. Most setups use a combination of both to achieve the desired suspension characteristics for your specific driving conditions.
- Is this suitable for beginners? — Suspension component replacement requires basic mechanical knowledge and proper tools. If you're comfortable performing basic RC maintenance and have access to assembly guides, this is manageable. However, if you're uncertain about suspension work, having an experienced RC mechanic or hobby shop perform the installation ensures proper alignment and optimal performance.
- Why should I use genuine ARRMA parts instead of aftermarket alternatives? — Genuine ARRMA components are engineered and tested to precise specifications that match your vehicle exactly, ensuring perfect fit, optimal performance, and reliability. Using manufacturer-specification parts eliminates compatibility guesswork and guarantees that your suspension geometry and handling characteristics remain as the engineers intended.
