Overview

The FTX Banzai Rear Dog Bones (2) FTX6593 are essential replacement drivetrain components for FTX Banzai 1/10th scale 4WD RC cars. Dog bones, also known as drive shafts or axle connectors, are critical suspension and drivetrain elements that transfer power from the transmission to the rear wheels whilst allowing the suspension to move freely. Whether you're a dedicated RC enthusiast maintaining your Banzai drift car or an RC car UK hobbyist looking to keep your vehicle in peak condition, these rear dog bones are a genuine FTX spare part designed to exact specifications for perfect fitment and performance.

RC cars experience significant wear and tear on drivetrain components, especially during regular use, aggressive driving, or competitive racing. The rear dog bones are particularly vulnerable to impact damage and wear, making them one of the most commonly replaced parts on any RC vehicle. Having a spare set on hand ensures your ready to run RC car can get back on the track or road within minutes of damage, without downtime. These FTX genuine spares guarantee compatibility, reliability, and the performance standards you'd expect from FTX's renowned engineering.

Perfect for owners of the FTX Banzai 1/10th scale 4WD RTR brushed electric street drift car in both red and green variants, these rear dog bones are manufactured to the original specification and will integrate seamlessly with your existing setup. Whether you run your Banzai casually or competitively, maintaining a stock of genuine spare parts is the hallmark of responsible RC ownership and ensures your vehicle performs at its best.

Technical Performance

The FTX Banzai Rear Dog Bones are precision-engineered drivetrain components that play a vital role in the mechanical operation of your 1/10th scale 4WD RC car. These components serve as the mechanical link between the transmission output and the rear axle hubs, allowing power to be transferred efficiently to the rear wheels whilst permitting the suspension to compress and extend during normal driving. The dog bones must be robust enough to withstand the forces generated by the Banzai's brushed electric motor, yet flexible enough to allow proper suspension geometry and articulation. Constructed from FTX's proven materials and manufacturing processes, these rear dog bones deliver reliability that matches the standard set by the complete FTX Banzai 1/10th scale 4WD RTR brushed electric drift car. The precise engineering ensures that drive train geometry remains consistent, which is especially important for drift cars where maintaining proper alignment and suspension movement is critical for performance. Regular inspection and replacement of dog bones as part of your RC maintenance schedule will keep your Banzai running smoothly and prevent more costly damage to gearboxes, motors, or suspension components that can result from worn or broken dog bones.

Frequently Asked Questions

• What are dog bones in an RC car and why do I need them? — Dog bones, also called drive shafts or axle connectors, are components that transfer power from your RC car's transmission to the rear wheels whilst allowing the suspension to move. They're essential for all-terrain driving and often need replacement due to impact damage or wear, making spare sets invaluable for any RC car UK enthusiast who wants to keep their vehicle running without extended downtime.
• Are these rear dog bones compatible with my FTX Banzai? — Yes, these FTX6593 rear dog bones are specifically designed for the FTX Banzai 1/10th scale 4WD RTR RC car, including both the red variant (FTX5529) and the green variant (FTX5529G). They're also compatible with the FTX 1/10 touring and drift car roller chassis (FTX5536), making them highly versatile spares for FTX platform owners.
• How often should I replace my RC car's dog bones? — The lifespan of dog bones depends on driving style, terrain, and the intensity of use. Regular inspection after each driving session is recommended. If you notice cracks, bending, or if a dog bone has snapped entirely, replacement is necessary immediately to prevent further drivetrain damage. Keeping spare dog bones on hand means you can perform repairs quickly and get back to enjoying your ready to run RC car.
• Can I install these myself? — Yes, replacing dog bones is a straightforward maintenance task that most RC enthusiasts can perform with basic tools. However, if you're new to RC maintenance, we recommend checking your FTX Banzai manual for specific installation guidance or visiting an authorised RC retailer for advice.
• Why would my dog bones break or wear out? — Dog bones experience significant stress during driving, particularly during acceleration, cornering, and when hitting rough terrain or obstacles. Impact damage from crashes is the most common reason for dog bone failure, but they can also wear out gradually through normal use. This is why having spares is essential for any RC car UK owner.
