Overview
The Traxxas Push rod (Aluminium) (assembled with rod ends) (2 pcs) (Red) TRX5319X is an essential suspension component for anyone running a Revo or Summit RC model truck in the UK or worldwide. These precision-engineered aluminium pushrods are designed to work specifically with progressive 3 rocker arms, offering a direct upgrade path for enthusiasts looking to optimise their vehicle's suspension geometry and handling characteristics. Whether you are a seasoned RC truck racer, a weekend basher, or an experienced modeller upgrading your existing setup, these genuine Traxxas components deliver the quality and durability you can expect from one of the world's leading RC manufacturers.
If you are searching for high-quality RC suspension upgrades online, RC truck suspension components UK, or genuine Traxxas parts for your Revo or Summit, this pushrod assembly represents an excellent choice. The pre-assembled design with rod ends already installed means you can get your truck back on the track or trail faster, without the hassle of separate component assembly. For RC enthusiasts looking to reduce unsprung weight and improve suspension response, these aluminium pushrods deliver measurable performance gains that will be felt in cornering stability and overall vehicle dynamics.
The red-anodised finish not only looks striking but also provides excellent corrosion resistance, ensuring these components will maintain their appearance and functionality through countless hours of driving. These pushrods are engineered to the same exacting standards as every other Traxxas component, using premium materials and manufacturing processes that have made Traxxas the choice of serious RC racers worldwide.
Key Features
- Ultra-strong 7075-T6 aluminium construction — These pushrods are manufactured from aerospace-grade 7075-T6 aluminium, one of the strongest aluminium alloys available, ensuring they can withstand the punishing forces and impacts of serious RC truck driving without bending or breaking.
- Pre-assembled with rod ends installed — Rod ends come factory-installed on these pushrods, eliminating the need for separate assembly and allowing you to simply bolt them onto your truck's suspension geometry, saving you time and reducing assembly errors.
- Red-anodised finish — The vibrant red-anodised coating provides exceptional corrosion resistance and aesthetic appeal, protecting the aluminium from oxidation while giving your truck a striking appearance that matches Traxxas's signature colour scheme.
- Weight reduction of 31 grams — By switching from heavier stock components to these aluminium pushrods, you decrease the total weight of your Revo or Summit by 31 grams, which directly improves acceleration, braking response, and overall handling dynamics by reducing unsprung weight.
- Compatible with progressive 3 rocker arms — These pushrods are specifically engineered to work with progressive 3 rocker arms (part number 5359), providing the correct geometry and suspension linkage ratio for this rocker configuration.
- Supplied as a pair — You receive two complete pushrods in this package, providing both front and rear suspension linkage components in a single purchase.
Technical Performance
The Traxxas TRX5319X pushrods represent a significant engineering achievement in RC suspension design. Manufactured from premium 7075-T6 aluminium—the same high-strength alloy used in aerospace and military applications—these components offer superior strength-to-weight ratio compared to stock steel pushrods. The 31-gram weight saving across the suspension system might seem modest on paper, but in real-world RC driving this translates to noticeably quicker acceleration, improved braking response, and more responsive steering input. The suspension geometry of the Revo and Summit requires different pushrod specifications depending on which rocker arm configuration you are using, and these units are specifically calibrated for progressive 3 rocker arms. The red-anodised finish provides more than just visual appeal; the anodisation process creates a hard oxide layer that protects against corrosion, oxidation, and the effects of water exposure during off-road driving. Pre-assembly with rod ends already installed means these components meet Traxxas's quality control standards before they leave the factory, ensuring consistent performance and eliminating assembly variables. For UK RC enthusiasts running serious suspension setups, these aluminium pushrods are a proven upgrade that will enhance your truck's handling characteristics and deliver the performance improvements you expect from Traxxas engineering.

Frequently Asked Questions
- What models do these Traxxas pushrods fit? — These TRX5319X pushrods are designed for Traxxas Revo and Summit models that use progressive 3 rocker arms (part number 5359). They will not fit with other rocker arm configurations, so verify your rocker type before purchasing.
- Do I need spacers with these pushrods? — These pushrods are specifically designed for use with progressive 3 rocker arms. If you are using progressive 2 rocker arms instead, you will need to purchase spacers (part number 5133), which are included with progressive 2 rocker arm kits. Always verify your rocker arm type before assembly.
- Will switching to aluminium pushrods improve my truck's performance? — Yes, the 31-gram weight reduction achieved by using these aluminium pushrods instead of heavier stock components will noticeably improve your truck's acceleration, braking response, and suspension response. Additionally, aluminium pushrods maintain their geometry more consistently over extended use, providing more predictable handling characteristics than stock alternatives.
- Are the rod ends included and pre-installed? — Yes, the rod ends are already assembled and installed on both pushrods at the factory. This means you can remove them from the package and bolt them directly onto your truck's suspension without any additional assembly, saving time and ensuring proper installation.
- How durable are 7075-T6 aluminium pushrods? — 7075-T6 is an aerospace-grade aluminium alloy recognised for its exceptional strength and fatigue resistance. These pushrods are engineered to withstand the forces encountered in serious RC truck racing, including landing impacts, cornering loads, and acceleration stresses. They are significantly more durable than plastic alternatives and offer superior reliability compared to lower-grade materials.
- Can I use these pushrods on both Revo and Summit models? — Yes, these pushrods are compatible with both Traxxas Revo and Summit models, provided they are equipped with progressive 3 rocker arms (part number 5359). Always verify your specific model and rocker arm configuration before purchasing.
- What is the difference between these and stock pushrods? — Stock pushrods typically use heavier steel or plastic materials. These Traxxas aluminium pushrods offer superior strength-to-weight ratio, reducing overall truck weight by 31 grams, improving handling response, and providing more consistent suspension geometry. The red-anodised finish also offers better corrosion resistance than bare steel alternatives.
