Key Features
- Red-Anodised Aluminium Construction — The aluminium body provides an excellent strength-to-weight ratio, keeping your RC vehicle light whilst maintaining the rigid geometry needed for precise steering control and suspension response. The red-anodised finish not only looks professional but also provides corrosion resistance and durability through repeated use.
- Pre-Assembled with Rod Ends — These push rods arrive completely assembled with rod ends already installed, meaning you can remove the old ones and drop the new ones straight into your RC car without any additional assembly work. This saves valuable time and eliminates the need for specialised tools or knowledge.
- Two Pieces Included — The pack contains two complete push rods, giving you a full pair for your suspension setup, which is exactly what most RC cars require for balanced geometry and consistent handling characteristics.
- Genuine Traxxas Component — As an authentic Traxxas part, you're getting the same quality and engineering specifications that the factory uses in complete RC vehicle kits, ensuring compatibility and performance that matches your vehicle's design requirements.
- Suspension Performance Enhancement — Worn or bent push rods can negatively impact your RC car's steering response, camber angles, and overall handling. Replacing them with fresh, straight Traxxas push rods restores your vehicle's suspension geometry to factory specifications.
Technical Performance
These Traxxas push rods represent precision engineering at its finest for RC suspension maintenance. The red-anodised aluminium material selection reflects Traxxas's commitment to balancing weight with structural integrity—a critical consideration in RC vehicle design where every gram impacts acceleration, braking, and handling characteristics. The pre-assembled rod ends are machined to exacting tolerances, ensuring smooth ball joint movement without excessive play, which is essential for predictable steering response and suspension articulation. Whether you're running a competitive 1/10 scale RC buggy, a high-speed RC stadium truck, or any other Traxxas model that uses this component, these push rods will restore your vehicle's original handling characteristics. The aluminium construction provides superior rigidity compared to composite alternatives, meaning your steering inputs translate directly to wheel movement without flex or deflection. For UK RC enthusiasts who take their hobby seriously, maintaining proper suspension geometry with quality replacement parts like these is the difference between a fast, predictable vehicle and one that fights you through the corners.

Frequently Asked Questions
- Which Traxxas RC models use these push rods? — The TRX8619R push rods are designed for specific Traxxas models. You should verify compatibility with your specific vehicle model before ordering. Traxxas manufactures different push rod designs for different model lines, so checking your vehicle's documentation or contacting our team will ensure you get the correct fit.
- Are these push rods difficult to install? — Installation is straightforward as these push rods come completely assembled with rod ends already attached. You simply disconnect the old push rods from your suspension and rod ends, then install the new ones. No special tools or technical knowledge is required—most RC enthusiasts can complete the job in just a few minutes.
- Why would I need replacement push rods? — Push rods can become bent or damaged through normal RC racing and bashing activity, especially in high-impact situations or if your vehicle has been involved in a crash. Worn push rods also wear at the ball joints, causing excessive play that negatively impacts handling precision. Replacement push rods restore your suspension geometry to factory specifications and improve steering response and overall vehicle performance.
- What's the difference between aluminium and composite push rods? — Aluminium push rods like these offer superior rigidity and durability compared to composite alternatives. They transmit suspension movements more directly to the steering and suspension systems, providing better feedback and more predictable handling. Aluminium also resists the flex that can develop in composite rods over time, maintaining consistent geometry through thousands of miles of RC driving.
- Can I use these as an upgrade rather than just a replacement? — Yes, if your RC vehicle originally came with composite push rods, upgrading to these Traxxas aluminium versions can provide improved suspension response and handling consistency, making them a worthwhile upgrade for serious RC enthusiasts looking to fine-tune their vehicle's performance.
