Overview
The Traxxas 4TEC Aluminium Suspension Arm Mounts (Blue-Anodised) represent a premium upgrade for serious RC enthusiasts looking to dial in their 4TEC 3.0 setup with precision and style. These high-performance adjustable suspension arm mounts are engineered to give you complete control over your vehicle's suspension geometry, allowing you to fine-tune anti-squat settings and rear toe angle for optimal handling on any surface. Whether you're competing at the track or enjoying weekend bashing with your RC car UK, these mounts deliver the adjustability that separates championship setups from casual builds.
Crafted from premium grade aluminium and finished in a striking bright blue anodise, these suspension mounts combine functional excellence with aesthetic appeal. The anodised finish not only looks professional but also provides enhanced durability and corrosion resistance, ensuring your investment maintains its appearance and structural integrity through countless runs and repairs. For RC enthusiasts in the UK seeking to upgrade their Traxxas 4TEC 3.0 Chevrolet Corvette Stingray to competition-grade specifications, this comprehensive suspension tuning kit delivers exceptional value and performance.
This complete package includes everything you need to upgrade your suspension mounting points: aluminium arm mounts for both front and rear positions, 12 precision hinge pin retainers to secure your suspension geometry, and 6 offset inserts that unlock the full potential of suspension tuning. Whether you're a seasoned competitor or an enthusiast looking to take your ready to run RC to the next level, these suspension mounts provide the precision adjustment tools you need.
Key Features
- Adjustable Anti-Squat Settings — The offset inserts allow you to modify the anti-squat geometry of your suspension arms, giving you precise control over how your vehicle handles acceleration and weight transfer during aggressive driving, which is essential for dialling in the perfect setup for your driving style and track conditions.
- Rear Toe Angle Adjustment — These mounts enable fine-tuning of rear toe angle through the included inserts, allowing you to optimise traction, stability and cornering performance to match your specific driving technique and surface conditions, from smooth tarmac to rough terrain.
- Premium Aluminium Construction — Manufactured from high-grade aluminium rather than plastic, these suspension mounts deliver superior rigidity and durability compared to standard components, ensuring your suspension geometry remains consistent even under demanding driving conditions and repeated impacts.
- Bright Blue Anodised Finish — The stylish anodised aluminium coating provides both aesthetic appeal and practical benefits including enhanced corrosion resistance, improved durability against weathering, and easy maintenance compared to bare metal or plastic alternatives.
- 12 Hinge Pin Retainers Included — This comprehensive quantity of hinge pin retainers ensures you have spares on hand and can maintain multiple vehicles or experiment with different suspension configurations without requiring additional purchases.
- 6 Offset Inserts Included — The six precision offset inserts provide multiple adjustment options for both anti-squat and toe angle settings, allowing you to experiment and find the optimal geometry for your driving conditions without purchasing additional components.
- Front and Rear Compatibility — These universal mounts work in both front and rear positions on your 4TEC 3.0, offering flexibility in how you configure your suspension geometry across the entire vehicle.
- Precision Engineering — Every component is manufactured to Traxxas quality standards, ensuring perfect fitment and reliable performance that won't let you down during competition or casual RC car UK driving sessions.
Technical Performance
The Traxxas 4TEC Aluminium Suspension Arm Mounts represent a significant upgrade in suspension tuning capability for owners of the 4TEC 3.0 Chevrolet Corvette Stingray AWD supercar. These mounts are engineered with precision tolerances to ensure that every adjustment you make translates directly into measurable changes in vehicle handling and performance. The aluminium construction provides exceptional rigidity compared to composite or plastic alternatives, meaning your suspension geometry remains stable and predictable even during intense driving sessions on varied terrain. The anodised finish goes beyond aesthetics—it provides a protective oxide layer that resists corrosion from road salt, moisture, and ambient conditions commonly encountered in the UK climate. The offset inserts are the key to unlocking this kit's potential: by adjusting their position, you can modify the vertical relationship between the suspension arm pivot points and the wheel mounting points, directly affecting anti-squat behaviour and weight transfer characteristics. This type of adjustment was once the exclusive domain of high-level competition builds, but these mounts democratise advanced suspension tuning for any RC enthusiast willing to invest in their setup. The included hinge pin retainers—12 in total—are precision-machined components that prevent unwanted movement of the hinge pins that connect your suspension arms to the chassis, maintaining consistent geometry throughout your driving session.

Frequently Asked Questions
- Will these suspension mounts work with my Traxxas 4TEC 3.0? — Yes, these mounts are specifically designed for the Traxxas 4TEC 3.0 Chevrolet Corvette Stingray (both TRX93054-4-BLK and TRX93054-4-SLVR models). They are drop-in replacements for the standard mounts and require no modification to your vehicle.
- What is the difference between the offset inserts and standard inserts? — The offset inserts included in this kit allow you to adjust the mounting angle of your suspension arms relative to the chassis, which changes both anti-squat settings and rear toe angle geometry. Standard flat inserts would provide no adjustment capability; these offset versions are what enable fine-tuning your suspension setup.
- How do I adjust anti-squat with these mounts? — By changing which offset insert you use and how you position it, you can adjust the geometry of your front and rear suspension arms. Different combinations create different amounts of anti-squat behaviour, allowing you to find the setup that feels best for your driving style and the conditions you're racing in.
- Are these mounts suitable for beginners? — These mounts are best suited for intermediate to advanced RC enthusiasts who already understand suspension geometry and tuning. Beginners might find them overwhelming, but the included instructions will guide you through the basics of suspension adjustment.
- Why would I need multiple hinge pin retainers? — The 12 retainers provided give you spares for maintenance and replacement, as well as allowing you to set up multiple vehicles or maintain consistency across different suspension configurations. Hinge pins can wear or bend with hard driving, so having spares ensures you're never left stranded.
- What makes aluminium suspension mounts better than composite ones? — Aluminium offers superior rigidity, which means your suspension geometry remains consistent and predictable. Composite mounts can flex under load, causing subtle changes in handling that make your vehicle harder to tune. The aluminium construction here ensures that adjustments you make actually stay in place.
- Will upgrading to these mounts improve my lap times? — Potentially, yes. By allowing you to fine-tune your suspension geometry, these mounts help you find the optimal setup for your driving style, weight transfer preferences, and track conditions. This can translate to better cornering stability, improved acceleration traction, and overall faster lap times, especially in competitive racing.
- Do I need any tools to install these mounts? — Basic RC maintenance tools (hex keys, screwdrivers) are required for installation. The installation process involves removing your original mounts and installing these new ones, which is a straightforward task for anyone with basic RC car experience.
