Traxxas Aluminium Turnbuckles 61mm Toe Links Blue Anodised 2 Pack TRX2336A

Overview

The Traxxas Turnbuckles in brilliant blue-anodised aluminium represent a significant upgrade for RC enthusiasts looking to enhance their model's suspension performance and visual appeal. Whether you're a seasoned RC car UK competitor or a weekend basher, these 61mm toe links offer the perfect balance of strength, adjustability and style. Designed specifically for models like the Stampede, these aluminium turnbuckles make it incredibly easy to fine-tune your vehicle's alignment and suspension geometry, giving you precise control over how your RC car handles on any terrain.

For anyone serious about RC performance, suspension tuning is absolutely critical. The factory steel components work adequately, but serious enthusiasts know that upgrading to quality aluminium components transforms handling characteristics and durability. Traxxas' aluminium turnbuckles deliver exactly this kind of performance upgrade, combining lightweight construction with genuine adjustability that allows you to dial in the perfect setup for your driving style and track conditions. The eye-catching blue-anodised finish doesn't just look stunning on your RC model—it represents genuine engineering quality and attention to detail.

These toe links come fully assembled with rod ends and hollow balls, meaning you get them ready to install straight from the box. No complicated assembly required—just remove your factory steel turnbuckles and swap in these premium aluminium alternatives. If you're investing time and money into an RC car UK setup, upgrading the suspension components is one of the smartest moves you can make for improved handling, better adjustability and a more professional appearance.

Key Features

• Brilliant Blue-Anodised Finish — The eye-catching anodised aluminium coating provides stunning aesthetics whilst offering genuine corrosion resistance and durability. This isn't just cosmetic; the anodising process hardens the aluminium surface, providing extra protection against wear and the elements whilst maintaining the vibrant blue colour that makes your RC car stand out at the track or park.
• High-Grade 7075-T6 Aluminium Construction — Traxxas uses premium 7075-T6 aluminium alloy, one of the strongest aluminium formulations available. This material ensures increased bending stiffness compared to standard aluminium, meaning these turnbuckles will flex less under load and provide more consistent, predictable handling feedback whilst resisting permanent deformation.
• 35% Lighter Than Titanium Alternatives — Aluminium toe links deliver genuine weight savings compared to heavier materials, with these turnbuckles being significantly lighter than even titanium options. Lower unsprung weight improves suspension responsiveness, reduces rotational inertia and helps your RC car react more quickly to track changes and obstacles.
• 61mm Length with Assembled Rod Ends and Hollow Balls — These turnbuckles arrive fully assembled with quality rod ends and hollow balls integrated, eliminating the need for additional assembly steps. The 61mm length is specifically engineered to fit models like the Stampede perfectly, ensuring proper suspension geometry and alignment without modifications.
• Full Adjustability for Suspension Tuning — The threaded turnbuckle design allows you to adjust length easily, enabling precise toe-in and toe-out adjustments. This adjustability is crucial for dialling in your suspension geometry to match different track conditions, driving styles and weather—exactly what serious RC racers and bashers need for optimal performance.
• Designed to Replace Factory Steel Components — These aluminium toe links are engineered as direct replacements for standard steel turnbuckles, making the upgrade process straightforward. The weight savings and improved stiffness characteristics translate directly into noticeably better handling response and overall vehicle performance.
• Includes 5mm Aluminium Wrench — Each kit includes a matching 5mm aluminium wrench (#5477) that prevents marring and scratching the beautiful anodised finish during installation and adjustment. This thoughtful inclusion demonstrates Traxxas' attention to detail and commitment to preserving the appearance of your premium upgrade components.

Technical Performance

These Traxxas aluminium turnbuckles represent genuine engineering excellence in RC suspension tuning. Manufactured from high-grade 7075-T6 aluminium, they deliver the perfect combination of strength, lightweight construction and adjustability that separates premium suspension components from budget alternatives. At 61mm in length and weighing significantly less than both stock steel alternatives and titanium options, these toe links reduce unsprung weight—the weight that doesn't sit on the suspension—which directly improves how quickly your RC car can react to bumps, jumps and directional changes. The increased bending stiffness provided by the quality aluminium material ensures consistent handling characteristics throughout a day of driving, without the flex and uncertainty that comes from inferior components. The assembled rod ends and hollow balls mean these turnbuckles are ready for immediate installation; simply thread them onto your suspension linkages, adjust to the correct length for your desired geometry, and you're ready to drive. The blue-anodised finish provides both protection and visual appeal, whilst the included 5mm aluminium wrench ensures you can make adjustments without damaging the precision finish. For any RC enthusiast running a Stampede or compatible model, these turnbuckles deliver measurable improvements in handling precision, adjustment range and overall suspension performance that justify the upgrade investment.

Frequently Asked Questions

• Are these Traxxas aluminium toe links suitable for my Stampede? — Yes, these 61mm aluminium turnbuckles are specifically designed to fit the Traxxas Stampede and compatible models. They function as direct replacements for the factory steel toe links, making installation straightforward for anyone with basic RC maintenance experience.
• What is the performance difference between aluminium and steel turnbuckles? — Aluminium turnbuckles deliver noticeable advantages over steel: they're approximately 35% lighter than titanium and significantly lighter than steel, which reduces unsprung weight and improves suspension responsiveness. The high-grade 7075-T6 aluminium used by Traxxas also provides increased bending stiffness, delivering more consistent handling and better adjustment precision. Additionally, the blue-anodised finish looks infinitely better than plain steel whilst providing genuine corrosion protection.
• Do these come assembled or do I need to assemble them? — These turnbuckles arrive fully assembled with rod ends and hollow balls integrated, ready for installation. Simply unbox them, use the included 5mm aluminium wrench to adjust to your desired length if needed, and install on your vehicle. This saves you assembly time and ensures professional quality construction.
• Can I use these on other Traxxas models besides the Stampede? — Whilst these are engineered specifically for the Stampede, the 61mm length and threaded design may be compatible with other Traxxas models that use similar suspension geometry. We recommend checking your model's service manual or contacting our knowledgeable team at RC Model Shop to confirm compatibility with your specific vehicle.
• What wrench do I need to adjust these turnbuckles? — The kit includes a 5mm aluminium wrench (#5477) specifically designed for these turnbuckles. Using this aluminium wrench instead of steel tools prevents scratching or marring the beautiful blue-anodised finish, preserving both function and appearance.
• How do I adjust the toe-in and toe-out with these turnbuckles? — Simply rotate the turnbuckle itself to lengthen or shorten the assembly. Lengthening increases toe-out, whilst shortening increases toe-in. Make adjustments in small increments and test drive to find the setup that works best for your driving style and track conditions. The threaded design allows for infinitely adjustable geometry within the turnbuckle's range.
• Is the blue-anodised finish durable for regular RC use? — Absolutely. The anodising process hardens the aluminium surface, providing genuine protection against corrosion, wear and the elements whilst maintaining the vibrant colour. Your turnbuckles will look new for years with normal use and basic maintenance.
