Overview
The ARRMA Aluminium Adjustable FF Suspension Mount -TLR is a precision-engineered front suspension component designed to enhance the performance, durability and tunability of your ARRMA RC vehicle. Whether you're a seasoned RC enthusiast running a brushless RC buggy, a high-speed truck competitor, or someone exploring the world of ready to run RC cars for the first time, this CNC-machined aluminium component represents a significant upgrade to your vehicle's front suspension geometry. The TLR Tuned branding indicates this part has been engineered and tested by professionals, bringing track-proven suspension technology to your RC setup.
This front lower suspension mount is specifically engineered to work with ARRMA's range of 1/8 scale brushless RC vehicles, including the popular KRATON 6S, NOTORIOUS 6S, OUTCAST 6S, TALION 6S, and TYPHON 6S models. The adjustable design allows you to fine-tune your vehicle's suspension geometry and handling characteristics, giving you the flexibility to optimise performance for different track conditions and driving styles. By adding strength and durability to the front suspension assembly of your vehicle, this mount helps ensure your RC car can handle aggressive driving and competitive use without premature wear or failure.
RC car enthusiasts in the UK increasingly recognise the importance of quality suspension components when building or upgrading their vehicles. This adjustable suspension mount from ARRMA delivers professional-grade engineering at an accessible price point, making it an excellent choice for anyone looking to improve their RC buggy or truck's handling and longevity. The laser-etched TLR Tuned logo also adds a stylish, professional appearance to your vehicle's chassis.
Key Features
- Precision CNC Machined Aluminium Construction — This suspension mount is manufactured using precision CNC machining from high-quality aluminium, ensuring dimensional accuracy and consistent quality across every unit, which is essential for reliable suspension geometry and predictable handling characteristics in your RC car.
- Anodised with Laser-Etched TLR Tuned Logo — The component features a professional anodised finish for corrosion resistance and durability, combined with laser etching that clearly displays the TLR Tuned branding, giving your RC vehicle a polished, competition-grade appearance.
- Enhanced Strength and Durability — By upgrading to this aluminium mount, you significantly improve the structural integrity of your vehicle's front suspension system, reducing flex and increasing the lifespan of the suspension geometry under hard driving conditions.
- Fits Front of Front Gearbox — This component is specifically designed to mount to the front of the front gearbox on compatible ARRMA models, providing a direct integration point for your suspension assembly.
- Geometry Adjustment Capability — The mount works in conjunction with adjustment blocks (sold separately), allowing you to make a range of suspension geometry adjustments to fine-tune your vehicle's handling, cornering performance and overall driving characteristics to suit your preferences and track conditions.
Technical Performance
The Aluminium Adjustable FF Suspension Mount -TLR is engineered from premium aluminium that has been precision CNC machined to exacting tolerances. This material choice provides an excellent balance of strength, rigidity and lightweight performance, which is crucial in RC suspension design where minimising unsprung mass helps improve traction and responsiveness. The anodised finish provides durability and corrosion resistance, protecting the component from the wear and tear of competitive use and outdoor driving. The adjustable design allows you to modify suspension geometry by working with adjustment blocks, enabling you to alter anti-roll bar mounting points or suspension mounting angles to dial in the perfect handling balance for your ARRMA 1/8 scale brushless RC buggy or truck. This level of tunability is particularly valued by serious RC car builders and competitors who understand that suspension geometry has a dramatic effect on cornering speed, stability and overall vehicle feel. The TLR Tuned designation indicates this component has been developed and tested by experienced RC engineers who understand what serious competitors demand from their vehicles.

Frequently Asked Questions
- Is the ARRMA Aluminium Adjustable FF Suspension Mount suitable for my ARRMA RC vehicle? — This mount is specifically designed for ARRMA's 1/8 scale brushless RC vehicles including the KRATON 6S, NOTORIOUS 6S, OUTCAST 6S, TALION 6S and TYPHON 6S series. Check your vehicle's model number against the compatibility list to confirm. The component installs at the front of the front gearbox of compatible vehicles.
- What are the benefits of upgrading to an aluminium suspension mount? — Aluminium provides superior strength and rigidity compared to plastic alternatives, reducing flex in the suspension system and improving the consistency of handling characteristics. This is particularly beneficial if you drive aggressively or compete in RC racing, where suspension geometry consistency directly affects lap times and vehicle control.
- How does the adjustable feature work? — This mount works with adjustment blocks (sold separately as ARA320658) that allow you to modify suspension geometry by changing mounting angles and anti-roll bar positions. This enables you to fine-tune your vehicle's handling balance to suit different driving styles, track layouts and surface conditions.
- What other components do I need to purchase separately? — To complete the suspension upgrade, you will need the rear mount (ARA320653), the Lower Arm Adjustment Block Set (ARA320658), and the Hinge Pin Lower components (ARA330731). These items are sold separately and are essential for full suspension assembly.
- Can beginners install this component? — The installation process requires familiarity with ARRMA vehicle assembly and suspension work. If you are new to RC car building, we recommend consulting your vehicle's instruction manual or seeking assistance from experienced RC enthusiasts. The component itself is precision-engineered, but proper installation is important to ensure correct suspension geometry and performance.
- Will this improve my RC vehicle's performance? — By adding strength, reducing flex and enabling geometry adjustments, this suspension mount helps improve overall vehicle handling, consistency and durability. Performance gains depend on your driving style, track conditions and how effectively you tune the adjustment blocks, but most users notice improved cornering grip and more predictable vehicle behaviour.
