Overview
The Traxxas Turnbuckles in brilliant pink-anodised aluminium (TRX3139P) are essential suspension tuning components designed specifically for RC enthusiasts across the UK who demand both performance and aesthetic appeal. These 59mm toe links represent a perfect marriage of form and function, delivering the adjustability needed for precise suspension geometry while maintaining the stunning visual impact that sets your RC model apart from the competition. Whether you're a serious racer fine-tuning your setup or a dedicated basher looking to enhance your RC car's handling characteristics, these aluminium turnbuckles provide the strength and adjustability that separates a good RC experience from a genuinely excellent one.
Toe links are critical suspension components in RC models, controlling the angle of your wheels relative to the centreline of the vehicle. By adjusting toe-in or toe-out, drivers can dramatically improve cornering grip, reduce tyre wear, and enhance overall vehicle stability. The Traxxas range of suspension components has become the gold standard for RC car UK enthusiasts, from weekend bashers to competitive racers. These pink-anodised aluminium turnbuckles exemplify Traxxas's commitment to quality engineering combined with customisation options that allow you to express your personal style while optimising your model's performance.
Pre-assembled and ready to install, these turnbuckles come fitted with rod ends and hollow balls, eliminating assembly hassle and getting you back to the track or trail faster. The included 5mm aluminium wrench ensures you can make adjustments without marring the beautiful anodised finish, protecting your investment and maintaining that show-stopping appearance run after run.

Technical Performance
These Traxxas turnbuckles represent precision-engineered suspension components built from high-grade aluminium and finished with brilliant anodising that resists corrosion and maintains colour vibrancy even under demanding conditions. The 59mm length has been carefully calculated to provide optimal suspension geometry adjustment range whilst maintaining structural integrity under the stresses of competitive racing and aggressive bashing.

Frequently Asked Questions
- What exactly are toe links and why do I need them? — Toe links are critical suspension components that control the angle of your RC model's wheels relative to the vehicle's centreline. By adjusting toe-in (wheels angled inward) or toe-out (wheels angled outward), you can dramatically improve your model's cornering grip, reduce tyre wear, and enhance overall stability. Whether you're racing competitively or bashing casually, adjustable toe links give you the ability to fine-tune your RC car's handling to match your driving style and track conditions.
- Are these turnbuckles easy to install? — Yes, these turnbuckles come fully pre-assembled with rod ends and hollow balls, meaning you can install them directly onto your RC model without requiring additional assembly. Simply remove your existing toe links, install these Traxxas components using the included 5mm aluminium wrench, and you're ready to adjust your suspension geometry. The process typically takes just minutes for anyone with basic RC maintenance experience.
- Will the pink-anodised finish scratch easily? — The anodised aluminium finish is genuinely durable and resistant to corrosion, but the included 5mm aluminium wrench has been specifically designed to engage the adjustment mechanism without damaging the surface. Using the correct wrench tool ensures you can adjust your suspension geometry repeatedly without marring the beautiful pink finish.
- Can I use these on any Traxxas RC model? — These 59mm toe links are designed as direct Traxxas components and will be compatible with specific Traxxas model ranges. Before purchasing, we recommend checking your model's specifications to confirm compatibility, as different Traxxas vehicles use different suspension component sizes. If you're unsure whether these will fit your particular RC model, our expert team at RC Model Shop are always happy to advise.
- What makes these better than cheaper alternatives? — Traxxas suspension components are manufactured to precision tolerances using quality aluminium and proven design principles that have proven themselves across countless competitive championships and casual usage scenarios. The anodised finish provides genuine corrosion protection whilst maintaining appearance, the rod ends provide reliable articulation, and the engineering ensures consistent performance and durability. Cheaper alternatives may work initially, but genuine Traxxas components deliver proven reliability and longevity that keeps your RC model performing consistently.
- Do I need any tools beyond the included wrench? — The included 5mm aluminium wrench is specifically designed for these turnbuckles. Depending on your RC model, you may need additional tools to remove your existing toe links and install these new components, but the adjustment wrench itself is included in the package.
