Overview
The ARRMA Body Parts Set Z-ARA320812 is an essential replacement and upgrade component for RC enthusiasts who operate ARRMA 1/14 scale buggies. Whether you're a dedicated basher, weekend racer, or someone who enjoys maintaining and customising their RC car UK setup, this body parts set provides the precision-engineered components needed to keep your model performing at its best. Designed specifically for compatibility with multiple ARRMA TYPHON GROM models, this set ensures that your RC buggy remains in top condition and ready for action whenever you want to hit the track or terrain.
As a serious RC hobbyist, you understand that body mounts and fasteners are critical structural components that directly impact how securely your body panels attach to the chassis. Over time, through enthusiastic bashing sessions, competitive racing, or general wear and tear, these components can become damaged, stripped, or worn. Having a dedicated replacement body parts set on hand means you can quickly restore your RC buggy to factory specifications without lengthy downtime. This is particularly valuable if you own multiple ARRMA TYPHON GROM variants or if you're someone who regularly maintains their ready to run RC vehicles to competition-grade standards.
ARRMA has built a reputation for manufacturing tough, durable RC vehicles that can handle serious punishment, and the components in this body parts set reflect that same commitment to quality and reliability. The precision-moulded construction ensures that replacement parts fit exactly as the manufacturers intended, maintaining the structural integrity and performance characteristics of your brushless RC 4x4 buggy.
Key Features
- Tough Composite Construction — The body mounts in this set are manufactured from durable composite materials that resist impact damage and provide excellent longevity compared to weaker plastic alternatives, meaning your RC buggy body will stay securely fastened even during aggressive driving sessions and crashes.
- Precision Moulded Design — Each component is precision moulded to exacting tolerances, guaranteeing an accurate fit with your ARRMA chassis and ensuring that body panels sit correctly without gaps or misalignment that could compromise aerodynamics or structural stability.
- Front and Rear Body Mount Coverage — This set includes both front and rear body mounts, providing complete mounting point replacement across your buggy's length and ensuring balanced, secure body panel attachment from bumper to bumper.
- Premium Fasteners Included — The inclusion of eight cap head screws M2.5 x 8mm means you have quality fasteners ready to install, eliminating the need to source compatible hardware separately and ensuring proper tensioning of your body mounts.
- OEM Specification Parts — As genuine ARRMA replacement components, these parts meet original equipment manufacturer specifications and integrate seamlessly with your existing RC model, maintaining warranty compliance and factory performance standards.
Technical Performance
The ARRMA Body Parts Set Z-ARA320812 represents essential maintenance and upgrade components engineered to the same quality standards as the rest of ARRMA's brushless RC 4x4 buggy range. The composite construction of the body mounts provides the ideal balance between weight and durability, critical factors in RC vehicle engineering where every gram impacts acceleration, handling and battery runtime. The precision moulding process ensures that tolerances are held to tight specifications, meaning that when you install these mounts on your TYPHON GROM buggy, the body will align perfectly with the chassis with no rocking or movement that could cause additional wear or vibration. The M2.5 x 8mm cap head screws provided are professional-grade fasteners that won't strip easily under the vibration and stress cycles generated during normal RC operation. Whether you're running a brushed MEGA 380 motor variant or the more powerful brushless BLX configuration, these body mounts will secure your body panels reliably, maintaining the rigid chassis platform that modern high-performance RC vehicles require for optimum handling and durability.
