Overview
The Traxxas Suspension arms, Blue, front/rear (left & right), heavy duty (2 pcs) represent a premium upgrade for RC enthusiasts across the UK who demand durability and performance from their RC models. These heavy-duty suspension arms are engineered specifically for Traxxas vehicles including the Stampede, Rustler, Slash, Jato 4x4 and compatible 4WD models, delivering the kind of reliability and strength that serious RC car UK hobbyists expect. Whether you're a weekend basher pushing your RC buggy to the limit at the skate park or preparing for the next competitive speed run, these suspension arms are built to withstand extreme punishment whilst maintaining the perfect balance of rigidity and flex.
Traxxas has invested considerable engineering expertise into developing a proprietary composite material specifically for these heavy-duty suspension arms. This advanced material was designed from the ground up to handle high loads and hard landings with just the right amount of flex to resist breaking, even in cold weather conditions. If you're running a ready to run RC truck or buggy and want genuine Traxxas components that guarantee factory-perfect compatibility, these suspension arms deliver the quality and performance you need without compromise.
Available in vibrant blue colour, these suspension arms come as a pair (left and right) and work equally well in front and rear positions on 4WD models or rear positions on 2WD models. The perfect factory fit means installation takes just minutes with no filing or modification required, making this an ideal upgrade for both experienced RC competitors and those new to the hobby who want to enhance their RC car's durability and handling characteristics.

Technical Performance
The Traxxas heavy-duty suspension arms represent a significant engineering achievement in RC component design. Built from a specialised composite material that Traxxas developed internally, these arms strike the crucial balance between strength and flexibility that RC enthusiasts demand. The proprietary composite formula provides exceptional resistance to breakage under the extreme stresses of hard landings, jumps and aggressive cornering whilst maintaining enough flex to absorb impacts and prevent sudden failure that can occur with overly rigid components. This is particularly important for UK RC hobbyists who often run their vehicles in varied conditions from dry tarmac to wet grass and unprepared terrain. The cold weather performance specification ensures that the material does not become brittle in winter conditions, maintaining consistent performance throughout the year. These arms are designed to work in tandem with Traxxas shock absorbers and other suspension components to create a cohesive, high-performance suspension system. Installation is straightforward with no modifications required, preserving the integrity of your vehicle's engineering. The arms are precision-manufactured to exacting standards ensuring perfect fitment with Stampede, Rustler, Slash and Jato 4x4 models, as well as other compatible Traxxas 4WD platforms. Each pair contains both left and right arms, allowing complete suspension upgrades on qualifying vehicles.
