Technical Performance
These Traxxas aluminium stub axle carriers represent a significant performance upgrade over standard plastic alternatives. The 6061-T6 aluminium alloy used in their construction is the same material specification found in aerospace applications, providing outstanding strength characteristics whilst remaining lightweight enough not to negatively impact your RC car's performance. The anodised finish is not merely cosmetic—it provides genuine protection against corrosion, UV degradation, and the wear that comes from regular track use or bashing in outdoor conditions across the UK. The engineering behind these carriers ensures that whilst you gain the durability benefits of an aluminium upgrade, the suspension geometry remains unchanged, meaning your RC car will handle identically to how it did out of the box, just with increased durability. The hardened-steel hinge pins supplied with the kit are specifically matched to these carriers, ensuring smooth articulation and eliminating any play or slop that could develop over time. The e-clips provide secure retention whilst allowing for easy maintenance and servicing should you need to access the pins for cleaning or replacement.

Frequently Asked Questions
- Will these aluminium stub axle carriers fit my Traxxas RC car? — These carriers are designed for rear axle applications on compatible Traxxas models. You should verify your specific model's compatibility, but they are engineered to Traxxas's precision specifications. The model number TRX1952G refers to these specific rear carriers, so ensure you are purchasing the correct variant for your vehicle's axle position and design.
- What is the advantage of upgrading to aluminium stub axle carriers? — Aluminium carriers offer substantially greater durability than plastic alternatives, resisting impacts and stress cracking that can occur from high-speed running, jumps, and rough terrain. The 6061-T6 alloy provides excellent strength-to-weight ratio, and the anodised finish protects against corrosion, particularly important if you run your RC car in wet conditions common across the UK. Your suspension geometry and handling remain unchanged—you're simply gaining durability and longevity.
- Are these suitable for beginners? — Absolutely. Whilst these are a performance upgrade, the installation is straightforward for anyone with basic RC car maintenance experience, and the complete kit includes all necessary hardware. Beginners who are new to RC car modifications will find these carriers a sensible first upgrade that noticeably improves durability without introducing complex installation procedures.
- Do I need any additional tools or parts to install these carriers? — The complete installation kit includes hardened-steel hinge pins, e-clips, and all necessary hardware, so you should have everything needed. Standard RC tools such as hex wrenches and screwdrivers will be required for installation, and you may need to remove your existing plastic carriers, but no additional components need to be purchased separately.
- How do these compare to other aftermarket stub axle carrier options for my RC car? — Traxxas manufactured components are engineered to OEM specifications, meaning they integrate flawlessly with your vehicle's existing geometry and component tolerances. The 6061-T6 aluminium specification provides excellent value and performance characteristics, whilst the anodised finish offers genuine corrosion protection. These are factory-quality components rather than third-party alternatives, ensuring compatibility and longevity.
- Will upgrading to these aluminium carriers change my RC car's handling? — No. Traxxas has engineered these carriers to maintain the precise suspension geometry your vehicle was designed with, so handling characteristics remain unchanged. The upgrade is purely about gaining durability and rigidity in this critical suspension component, with no negative effects on performance or handling.
