Check the compatibility list to confirm your specific model variant is supported.
- Is this a direct replacement part for my ARRMA RC vehicle? — Yes, this is a genuine ARRMA spare part designed as a direct replacement for the original C hub on compatible vehicles. It features the same precision moulding and composite construction, ensuring perfect fitment and suspension performance without any modifications required.
- What is the C hub and why might I need to replace it? — The C hub is a critical suspension component that connects your vehicle's steering knuckle to the upper suspension arm, forming part of your RC car's suspension geometry. You may need to replace it after heavy crashes that damage the steering linkage, if it becomes worn from repeated use, or if you're servicing your vehicle for optimal performance.
- Can I use this part as a preventative spare? — Absolutely. Many serious RC hobbyists in the UK keep spare suspension components like this C hub set in their workshop or field kit to minimise downtime after crashes. Having a genuine replacement on hand means you can quickly get back to driving rather than waiting for parts to arrive.
- Is installation difficult? — The C hub is designed as a simple replacement spare part that connects directly to your existing suspension linkage. Most RC owners can swap this component with basic tools, though you should refer to your vehicle's manual for specific installation instructions to ensure correct alignment.
- How does composite construction compare to aluminium C hubs? — Composite hubs offer excellent crash resistance and are more forgiving on impact, making them ideal for bashers who frequently encounter obstacles. They're lighter than aluminium alternatives and maintain precise tolerances through precision moulding, though aluminium variants may offer different handling characteristics in racing applications.
