These front steering blocks reflect that same commitment to quality and durability, providing the foundation for reliable suspension performance across all weather conditions and terrain types available to UK RC enthusiasts.
Key Features
- Tough Composite Material — Manufactured from reinforced composite material rather than weaker plastic, these steering blocks deliver increased crash resistance and exceptional durability during the most extreme RC action, meaning you can bash harder and recover faster without component failure.
- Precision Pivot Ball Housings — The specially engineered pivot ball housings ensure smooth, responsive suspension operation in all conditions, whether you're driving through mud, sand, concrete or rocky terrain, maintaining consistent handling characteristics every time you drive.
- Complete Left and Right Set — This kit includes both front left and front right steering blocks with all necessary upper caps, lower caps, and hubs, so you can perform a full front-end replacement without sourcing components from multiple suppliers.
- Solid and Reliable Fit — The specially designed composite caps create a solid, dependable fit for both suspension arms and steering linkages, eliminating wobble and ensuring your RC car responds precisely to your radio transmitter inputs.
- Genuine OEM Component — As an original ARRMA part, this component is engineered and tested to exact specifications, guaranteeing perfect fit and compatibility with your ARRMA vehicle without modification or adjustment required.

Technical Performance
The ARRMA Front Steering Blocks Z-ARA-1507 represent precision engineering in composite material technology, delivering the durability and performance characteristics that ARRMA is renowned for throughout the UK RC community. These steering blocks are constructed from tough composite material selected specifically for its combination of strength and impact resistance, allowing the suspension to absorb and transfer forces efficiently during high-speed cornering, landing from jumps, and collision impacts. The composite construction also provides excellent dimensional stability across temperature ranges, ensuring your RC car maintains its handling characteristics whether you're driving in warm summer conditions or cooler autumn weather typical of the UK. The precision-engineered pivot ball housings are critical to suspension performance, as they allow the steering blocks to articulate smoothly through their full range of motion without binding or stiction. This smooth operation is essential for consistent handling feel, predictable steering response, and even suspension geometry throughout suspension travel. The engineering of these blocks ensures that whether you're driving a KRATON 6S EXB monster truck through aggressive high-speed terrain or piloting a NOTORIOUS 6S V6 BLX stunt truck through freestyle tricks, your suspension will respond predictably and reliably. The composite material selected for these blocks offers superior crash resistance compared to standard plastic components, meaning impact damage is less likely and your steering blocks will maintain their integrity through multiple collisions during intense RC action.

When purchasing from RC Model Shop, you can be confident you're receiving authentic components backed by ARRMA's quality standards.
- Why would I need replacement steering blocks? — Steering blocks can become damaged through normal use, impacts, or crashes during RC driving. Wear may also develop through thousands of driving hours. Replacing steering blocks restores your vehicle's suspension geometry, ensuring precise handling and preventing component binding that could affect steering response.
- How difficult is it to replace these steering blocks? — Replacement requires basic RC mechanical knowledge and standard tools. Most RC enthusiasts with moderate experience can complete the replacement themselves, though if you're uncertain about the process you can visit an authorised ARRMA retailer for professional fitting advice.
- Will damaged steering blocks affect my RC car's performance? — Yes, significantly. Damaged or worn steering blocks can cause poor steering response, unstable handling, suspension binding, and uneven tyre wear. Replacing worn blocks restores the precise suspension geometry designed by ARRMA engineers for optimal performance.
- Is this a complete solution or do I need additional parts? — This kit includes all front left and right steering block components including upper caps, lower caps, and hubs. However, you may need additional fasteners or other suspension components depending on the extent of damage to your vehicle and whether you're performing a complete front-end refresh.
