Overview
The Traxxas Suspension Screw Pin Set (TRX10740) is an essential replacement component for RC enthusiasts who own Traxxas mini-scale models. This comprehensive pin set is designed to maintain optimal suspension geometry and performance on your RC car, whether you're running a Mini Maxx, Mini XRT, Mini Rally VXL, or Mini Slash platform. As a dedicated RC car UK retailer, we understand that maintaining your suspension system is critical for consistent handling, durability, and race-ready performance across all driving conditions.
Suspension pins are among the most frequently replaced wear items on any RC vehicle, particularly if you're an active basher or weekend racer pushing your model to its limits. Whether you're tackling jumps, cornering aggressively, or simply putting regular miles on your brushless RC car, having a complete set of replacement suspension screw pins on hand ensures you're never sidelined by a worn or damaged component. This genuine Traxxas spare part set provides everything you need to keep your mini-scale RC model running at peak performance, and it's compatible with multiple model variants across the Mini series lineup.
The beauty of this suspension pin set is its versatility. With a carefully selected range of different lengths and quantities, you'll have the exact pins needed for both front and rear suspension setups, making it an invaluable addition to any RC enthusiast's spare parts box. Whether you're running a ready-to-run RTR model fresh from the box or you're a seasoned competitor fine-tuning a race-prepared setup, maintaining your suspension with quality OEM replacement parts from Traxxas is the smart choice.
Key Features

Technical Performance
Suspension pins are critical engineering components that connect suspension arms to the main chassis and shock towers, directly influencing how your RC car handles, turns, and responds to rough terrain. The different lengths included in this TRX10740 set — 40mm, 32mm, 28mm, and 46mm — correspond to specific suspension mounting points on your Traxxas mini model. The 3x40mm pins (included as six units) represent the most commonly replaced items, suggesting these are the primary load-bearing points that experience the greatest stress during normal operation. The 3x32mm, 3x28mm, and 3x46mm pins provide coverage for secondary mounting points and alternative suspension configurations, giving you flexibility in how you set up your vehicle. When suspension pins begin to wear or develop play, your RC car loses precision steering response, develops handling inconsistencies, and can suffer accelerated wear to other suspension components. By replacing them with genuine Traxxas parts, you maintain the exact suspension geometry and responsiveness that your model was engineered to deliver. These pins are manufactured from durable materials designed to withstand the demands of active RC driving, whether you're running your brushless mini-scale truck at top speed on a track or bashing it through rough outdoor terrain.

Frequently Asked Questions
- What is a suspension screw pin and why would I need to replace it? — Suspension screw pins are the fasteners that connect your suspension arms and components to the main chassis of your RC car. During active driving, particularly aggressive bashing or racing, these pins experience constant stress and can become worn, bent, or damaged. When pins wear out, your RC car's handling becomes imprecise, steering feels loose, and suspension geometry becomes misaligned. Having a replacement set on hand means you can quickly restore your model to factory-fresh performance specifications without delays.
- Which Traxxas models does this set fit? — The TRX10740 suspension pin set is compatible with the Traxxas Mini Maxx, Mini XRT, Mini Rally VXL Ford RS200, and Mini Slash BL-2S 4X4 series. These are all part of the Traxxas mini-scale lineup, ranging from short-course trucks to rally cars and maxx models, making this an essential spare for owners of any of these popular ready-to-run platforms.
- Do I need to replace all the pins at once? — Not necessarily. This set allows you to replace pins individually as they wear out, or you can do a complete suspension overhaul by replacing all pins at once for maximum freshness and consistency. Many experienced RC drivers prefer to keep this set on hand and swap pins proactively during regular maintenance schedules, which is far more economical than replacing them only when they fail.
- How often should I check my suspension pins? — Regular inspection is the best practice, particularly if you're an active driver or racer. Check your suspension pins after every few driving sessions or whenever you perform routine maintenance on your RC car. If you notice any play in your suspension arms or feel imprecision in your steering response, worn pins are often the culprit.
- Are these the original Traxxas pins or compatible alternatives? — These are genuine Traxxas OEM replacement parts manufactured to original equipment specifications. When you choose genuine parts, you ensure perfect fit, reliability, and the exact performance your Traxxas model was engineered to deliver.
- What is the difference between the pin lengths? — The different lengths (28mm, 32mm, 40mm, and 46mm) correspond to different mounting points on your suspension system. The 40mm pins are included in the highest quantity because they are the primary load-bearing fasteners used most frequently in your suspension geometry. The other lengths fill secondary roles and suspension variations depending on your specific model and setup.
