Key Features
- Complete Hardware Set for One Vehicle — This set contains all the necessary components required to service or replace the body release system on a single ARRMA vehicle, meaning you won't need to source parts from multiple suppliers or hunt for individual components.
- Easy Servicing and Maintenance — The comprehensive nature of this kit allows for straightforward servicing of your body release mechanism, enabling quick access to your chassis whenever you need to perform maintenance, cleaning, or component upgrades without frustration or missing parts.
- Genuine ARRMA Manufactured Components — Every piece in this set is produced by ARRMA to their exact specifications, guaranteeing that fit, finish, and performance will be identical to your vehicle's original components, eliminating compatibility concerns.
- Precision M2.5 Cap Head Screw — The M2.5 x 6mm cap head screw provides a secure, professional-grade fastening solution that won't strip or loosen during aggressive driving or frequent body removal cycles.
- Body Shell Button Release Pin — This precision-engineered pin is the core component of your body release system, allowing smooth, reliable separation of the bodyshell from the chassis frame every single time without binding or sticking.
- Body Release Button Spring — The spring mechanism ensures consistent tension and reliable return action of your body release button, maintaining responsive operation through countless removal cycles.
- Dual Body Post Lock Wires — Two body post lock wires provide secure attachment points that prevent unwanted body movement or separation during high-speed driving, protecting your bodyshell from damage and ensuring consistent handling characteristics.
- Dual Body Post Lock Wire Mounting Screws — Two dedicated mounting screws ensure both body post lock wires are firmly secured in place, preventing loosening that could lead to rattling, vibration, or body shift during aggressive driving.
