Overview

The Traxxas Suspension arms, Rear (Blue) (2) (heavy duty, cold weather material) TRX2555A represent the pinnacle of rear suspension durability for your RC short course truck or bashers that demand extreme performance. Whether you're an experienced racer looking to upgrade your RC car UK setup or a weekend basher pushing your vehicle to its limits at the local skate park, these heavy-duty rear suspension arms are engineered to withstand punishment that would break standard components. Traxxas has developed a proprietary composite material specifically formulated for high loads and hard landings, making these arms the go-to choice for RC enthusiasts who refuse to compromise on durability and reliability.

These blue rear suspension arms are part of Traxxas's comprehensive range of upgrade and replacement parts designed to enhance your existing RC vehicle's performance and longevity. If you're preparing for a high-speed competition run or simply want to upgrade your current setup with genuine Traxxas components, these heavy-duty arms deliver the performance and compatibility you need.

As an authorised Traxxas retailer, RC Model Shop stocks genuine components like these to ensure your RC investment is protected with quality parts that meet factory specifications.

What sets these suspension arms apart from standard alternatives is the cold weather material technology built into the composite construction. Traditional suspension components can become brittle and prone to failure in cold conditions, but Traxxas's proprietary formula maintains the perfect balance of strength and flex regardless of temperature, making these arms suitable for year-round RC car UK driving and bashing.

Key Features

• Cold weather performance — The composite material maintains flexibility and strength even in cold conditions, allowing you to enjoy RC car driving throughout the year without worrying about brittleness or material degradation during winter months.

Technical Performance

The Traxxas TRX2555A rear suspension arms represent years of engineering expertise focused on delivering maximum durability for high-performance RC short course trucks and bashers. The proprietary composite material has been rigorously tested to ensure it performs consistently across a wide range of driving conditions, from smooth skate park surfaces to rough outdoor terrain. The engineering philosophy behind these arms centres on providing just the right amount of flex to absorb impact energy from hard landings and high-speed impacts, whilst maintaining structural integrity that prevents failure under extreme loads. This balance is crucial for RC enthusiasts who regularly subject their vehicles to punishment that would destroy standard plastic components. The cold weather material formulation is particularly important for UK RC car enthusiasts, as it ensures consistent performance whether you're driving during summer heat or winter cold. Unlike standard suspension arms that can become brittle and prone to snapping in cold conditions, these Traxxas arms maintain their flex properties and impact resistance year-round. The heavy-duty composite construction is significantly stronger than standard suspension arms, making these an essential upgrade for serious RC drivers who compete, race, or regularly perform high-impact driving manoeuvres. Installation is straightforward with no modifications required, allowing the arms to drop directly onto compatible vehicles without adjustment or customisation needed.
