Overview
The ARRMA Rear Arms (2) Z-ARA-1606 are essential replacement suspension components designed for RC enthusiasts who demand durability and precision in their off-road RC cars. Whether you're a seasoned basher enjoying high-speed runs across rough terrain, or a dedicated competitor pushing your brushless RC truck to its limits, these rear arms are the perfect upgrade or replacement for your existing suspension setup. ARRMA is renowned for engineering high-performance RC vehicles that withstand extreme conditions, and these suspension arms embody that same commitment to quality and reliability.
If you've experienced damage to your rear suspension during an aggressive run, or simply want to upgrade to more durable components, these rear arms offer a straightforward solution that restores your RC car's handling and stability. Manufactured to exacting standards with precision-engineered mounting holes, they integrate seamlessly with a wide range of popular ARRMA 1/10 scale models including the FURY 223S, GRANITE 223S, QUAKE 223S, SENTON 223S, VORTEKS 223S and the 2WD variants of these platforms. RC enthusiasts across the UK trust ARRMA spare parts for their proven performance and longevity, making these rear arms an investment in keeping your RC vehicle running at peak performance.
These suspension arms represent genuine ARRMA engineering, manufactured to the same exacting tolerances as the original equipment fitted to brand new RC trucks. The composite material construction provides the perfect balance between weight savings and impact resistance, ensuring your RC car remains responsive whilst absorbing the punishment of serious off-road driving.
Key Features
- Tough Composite Material Construction — The rear arms are manufactured from a reinforced composite material that delivers exceptional crash resistance without adding unnecessary weight to your RC vehicle. This material composition means your suspension can absorb impacts from jumps, rough terrain and collisions whilst maintaining structural integrity, extending the working life of your RC car and reducing the frequency of repairs.
- Precision Engineered Shock Mounting Holes — The shock mounting holes are manufactured with precision engineering tolerances that ensure perfect alignment with your shock absorbers. This precision fit eliminates play and movement in the suspension, translating directly into more predictable handling, improved cornering stability and better power transfer during acceleration on your brushless RC truck or short-course vehicle.
- Precision Engineered Hinge Pin Mounting Holes — The hinge pin holes are manufactured to exacting standards, providing a secure and repeatable fit that ensures consistent suspension geometry across multiple sessions and runs. This precision reduces deflection and movement in the suspension linkage, which is critical for maintaining stable handling whether you're running on grass, dirt, asphalt or mixed terrain.
- Genuine ARRMA OEM Component — These are original equipment manufacturer parts supplied by ARRMA, the RC manufacturer, ensuring complete compatibility and performance characteristics matching the design specifications of your RC vehicle. Using genuine OEM parts maintains the engineered suspension geometry and performance characteristics that ARRMA's engineers designed into your specific model.
- Direct Replacement Design — The rear arms are engineered as direct replacements for factory-standard components, requiring no modifications, drilling, or secondary machining. Simply remove your damaged or worn rear arms and install these replacements, allowing you to get back to driving your RC car quickly and confidently.
Technical Performance
These ARRMA rear suspension arms are engineered from durable composite material that combines lightweight properties with excellent impact resistance, making them ideal for the demands of modern high-performance RC vehicles. The material specification provides superior crack resistance compared to standard plastic components, whilst maintaining dimensional stability under the stresses imposed by aggressive driving. The precision manufacturing process ensures shock mounting holes and hinge pin mounting holes are manufactured to tolerances that eliminate play and wobble in the suspension system, critical for maintaining the handling characteristics your ARRMA brushless RC truck was engineered to deliver. Whether running a 2WD short-course truck or a 4WD monster truck, these rear arms maintain their structural integrity through repeated impacts, hard cornering and high-speed transitions. The composite material resists the environmental degradation that affects some plastic components, meaning these arms retain their performance characteristics across multiple seasons of regular driving. For RC enthusiasts running modern brushless systems generating significant torque and power, these arms provide the suspension geometry stability necessary to translate that power efficiently to the ground whilst absorbing the stresses generated by powerful motors and electronic speed controllers.

Frequently Asked Questions
- Which ARRMA RC models are compatible with the Z-ARA-1606 rear arms? — These rear arms are compatible with a comprehensive range of ARRMA 1/10 scale vehicles including the FURY 223S BLX Brushless 2WD Short Course Truck in both blue and green variants, the FURY 2WD available with or without battery and charger in multiple colours, the GRANITE 223S DSC 4WD Brushless Monster Truck in red, blue and gun metal finishes, the QUAKE 223S DSC 2WD Brushless Monster Truck available in green, red and purple, the SENTON 223S BLX Brushless 4WD Short Course Truck in yellow, blue/purple and red, and the VORTEKS 223S BLX 4x4 Stadium Truck in red, purple and teal. Additionally, they are compatible with the VORTEKS 2WD models available with optional battery and charger packages. This broad compatibility makes them an excellent spare parts choice for users with multiple ARRMA vehicles or those expanding their collection.
- Are these rear arms suitable for beginners with RC cars? — Yes, these rear arms are suitable for users at all experience levels. If you're new to RC hobbies and own an ARRMA vehicle, replacement suspension components are straightforward to install and require no special tools or technical knowledge beyond basic assembly skills. The direct replacement design means they bolt directly onto your existing suspension without modifications.
- What makes composite material better than plastic for RC suspension arms? — Composite materials used in these rear arms deliver superior impact resistance and crack resistance compared to standard injection-moulded plastic, meaning they withstand more severe crashes and jumps before requiring replacement. The material specification also provides better dimensional stability under stress, maintaining suspension geometry more accurately through thousands of driving cycles. For RC enthusiasts running powerful brushless motors and conducting aggressive driving, this material choice significantly extends service life compared to standard plastic alternatives.
- Do I need any tools to install these rear arms? — Installation requires only basic tools typically available in any RC enthusiast's workshop, such as hex wrenches and screwdrivers. The rear arms install using existing shock and hinge pin mounting holes on your ARRMA chassis, with no drilling or modification required. Detailed installation instructions are available through ARRMA's technical documentation.
- How do I know when I need to replace my rear suspension arms? — Signs that you need replacement rear arms include visible cracks, bending, or warping of the suspension components, play or movement in the suspension linkage during handling, handling changes or pulling to one side despite proper setup, or simply wear and damage from regular high-performance driving. Replacing worn or damaged suspension components is one of the most cost-effective maintenance tasks to restore your RC vehicle's handling characteristics.
