Overview
The Losi Aluminum Caster Blocks for Micro-B/T represent a premium upgrade path for owners of Losi's compact 1/24 and 1/28 scale RC buggies and trucks. These precision-engineered caster blocks are machined from high-strength 6061 anodized aluminium, delivering a substantial improvement in durability and handling characteristics over standard plastic components. Whether you're a competitive racer fine-tuning your RC car UK setup or a dedicated hobbyist looking to enhance your Micro-B or Micro-T performance, these blocks offer race-proven engineering in a compact package that's perfectly suited to small-scale off-road racing.
Designed with input from Losi's 22 series vehicle platform, these caster blocks bring professional-grade suspension geometry to the micro scale. The black anodized finish with silver edging gives your RC model a distinctly premium appearance, while the engineering focus ensures improved steering response, corner stability and overall handling precision. For anyone serious about getting the best performance from their 1/24 Micro-B 2WD buggy or 1/28 Micro-T 2WD stadium truck, this is an essential tune-up upgrade that transforms the driving experience and puts you in control of a more responsive, race-capable platform.
If you already own a ready to run RC buggy or stadium truck from Losi's micro range, installing these aluminium caster blocks is one of the most impactful upgrades you can make. The investment translates directly into better handling, increased durability under racing conditions, and the confidence that comes from running genuine Losi factory components rather than aftermarket alternatives.
Key Features
- High-Strength 6061 Anodized Aluminium Construction — These caster blocks are manufactured from aerospace-grade 6061 aluminium that has been hard anodized to resist wear, corrosion and impact damage, ensuring they will outlast plastic alternatives and maintain their precision geometry even after countless hours of racing and bashing.
- Black Anodized Finish with Silver Edging — The professional-grade finish not only looks exceptional and gives your RC car a race-ready appearance, but the anodizing process also provides additional surface protection against scratches, dirt and UV exposure during outdoor use.
- Race-Inspired Design Based on 22 Series Vehicles — These blocks leverage decades of Losi engineering expertise from their successful 22 series platform, bringing proven suspension geometry and steering characteristics down to the micro scale, ensuring you get genuine race engineering rather than a simplified design.
- Compatible with Multiple Micro-Scale Models — The blocks fit both the 1/24 Micro-B 2WD buggy and the 1/28 Micro-T 2WD stadium truck, making them a versatile upgrade option whether you're running silver or white RTR versions of either chassis.
- Direct Factory Fit — As genuine Losi components, these caster blocks install directly into your Micro-B or Micro-T without modification, modification or additional adaptation, ensuring perfect fitment and maintaining the integrity of your suspension geometry.
Technical Performance
The Losi Aluminum Caster Blocks represent a fundamental improvement in chassis stiffness and suspension precision for 1/24 and 1/28 scale RC vehicles. Where plastic caster blocks can flex under load and gradually wear over time, the 6061 anodized aluminium construction maintains rock-solid geometry through hard cornering, jumps and aggressive racing conditions. The material choice is critical because caster angle directly affects steering response, tyre contact patch and overall handling balance. By upgrading to these factory-engineered aluminium blocks, you're ensuring that your suspension geometry remains consistent lap after lap, season after season. The anodizing process adds a wear-resistant surface layer that resists the scratches and dings that accumulate during typical RC car use, keeping your setup looking professional and performing predictably. These blocks are engineered specifically for the Micro-B buggy platform and the Micro-T stadium truck platform, which means they work in harmony with the rest of your suspension system to deliver the kind of handling precision you'd expect from genuine Losi factory components rather than third-party alternatives.

Frequently Asked Questions
- Will these caster blocks improve my Micro-B or Micro-T handling? — Yes, these aluminium caster blocks will noticeably improve steering response and cornering stability compared to plastic alternatives. The rigid construction maintains suspension geometry under load, which translates into more predictable handling, faster corner speeds and better overall control, especially on technical tracks where precision matters.
- Are these compatible with my Losi Micro-B RTR? — These blocks are specifically designed to fit both the Losi 1/24 Micro-B 2WD Buggy in silver and white versions, as well as the 1/28 Micro-T 2WD Stadium Truck in silver and white versions. If you own either of these ready to run RC models, these blocks will install directly without any modification required.
- How do aluminium caster blocks compare to plastic ones? — Aluminium caster blocks offer superior durability, maintain tighter suspension geometry under racing conditions, resist wear over time, and provide a more premium feel and appearance. While plastic blocks are lighter, aluminium blocks deliver better handling consistency and longevity, making them the preferred choice for serious racers and competitors running micro-scale RC cars.
- Is installation difficult? — These are genuine Losi factory components designed for direct fitment to your Micro-B or Micro-T, so installation should be straightforward for anyone familiar with basic RC car maintenance and suspension work. We recommend consulting your chassis manual for proper installation procedures and torque specifications.
- What scale are these caster blocks for? — These blocks are sized specifically for 1/24 and 1/28 scale RC vehicles, which are micro-scale platforms. They are not compatible with larger 1/10 or 1/8 scale chassis.
