Overview
The Traxxas Mounts, sway bar (front and rear) with 3x6mm FCS fasteners represent an essential upgrade and replacement component for RC enthusiasts maintaining or tuning their Traxxas vehicles. These precision-engineered sway bar mounts are designed to deliver consistent suspension geometry and handling characteristics across both front and rear axles of your RC car. Whether you're a dedicated weekend basher enjoying your RC car UK hobby or a competition-focused driver seeking optimal chassis tuning, having quality replacement mounts on hand ensures your vehicle maintains peak performance. Traxxas has built its reputation on delivering durable, high-quality RC parts that stand up to the rigours of serious RC driving, and these mounts are no exception.
Sway bars, also known as anti-roll bars, play a crucial role in controlling body roll and maintaining consistent tyre contact during cornering. The mounts that secure these bars to your suspension are subjected to constant stress during aggressive driving, making them a consumable item that eventually requires replacement. This genuine Traxxas part ensures that when you do need to refresh your suspension setup, you're installing components that match the original engineering specifications of your vehicle. For RC model enthusiasts in the UK looking to maintain their investments or fine-tune their handling characteristics, these mounts offer reliable, OEM-quality construction at an affordable price point.
The inclusion of 3x6mm FCS fasteners means you have everything needed to complete the installation straightaway, eliminating the frustration of hunting for compatible hardware. This attention to detail is typical of Traxxas, demonstrating why they remain one of the most trusted names in RC cars across the UK and beyond. Whether you're refreshing a well-used vehicle, building a spare parts inventory, or setting up your RC car for the first time, these sway bar mounts are an investment in reliability and consistent performance.

Technical Performance
The Traxxas Mounts, sway bar (front and rear) represent precision engineering designed to maintain exact suspension geometry specifications across your RC vehicle's chassis. Sway bar mounts are critical suspension components that must withstand constant mechanical stress during cornering, braking and acceleration cycles. The 3x6mm FCS fasteners included in this package are specifically engineered for Traxxas applications, providing secure retention without the risk of loosening under vibration or high-impact driving. The mounts themselves are constructed from durable materials that resist degradation from repeated stress cycles, UV exposure and the moisture commonly encountered in UK outdoor RC driving conditions. These components work in conjunction with your vehicle's sway bars to control body roll and chassis lean during turns, maintaining consistent tyre contact patches that are essential for predictable handling, competitive lap times and safe driving characteristics. Whether you're running a 1/10 scale RC buggy, stadium truck, short course truck or other Traxxas model, proper suspension geometry through quality replacement mounts directly impacts your vehicle's performance on track or trail. Regular inspection and timely replacement of these mounts as part of your preventative maintenance routine ensures your RC car maintains the engineering intent of Traxxas' original design, delivering the responsive handling and reliability that has made Traxxas a leader in the RC hobby across the UK and globally.

Frequently Asked Questions
- Are these Traxxas sway bar mounts suitable for my RC car? — These mounts are genuine Traxxas parts designed for application on Traxxas vehicles. Check your vehicle's manual or parts diagram to confirm compatibility with your specific model, as different Traxxas vehicles may have slightly different suspension geometries. As Traxxas parts are engineered with precision tolerances, using genuine OEM mounts ensures perfect fitment and performance.
- What is FCS and why does it matter? — FCS refers to the fastener specification (3x6mm size) that comes included with these mounts. Having the correct fasteners ensures secure retention without risk of loosening, which is critical for maintaining suspension geometry and preventing component loss during driving. Traxxas specifies these fasteners because they provide the optimal balance of strength, reliability and ease of installation.
- How often do sway bar mounts need replacement? — Sway bar mounts are consumable items that eventually wear and require replacement due to mechanical stress cycles. The frequency depends on driving intensity, terrain, maintenance practices and storage conditions. Regular inspections as part of your routine RC car maintenance will help you identify when replacement is necessary. Many serious RC enthusiasts keep spare mounts on hand to minimise downtime.
- Can I use aftermarket mounts instead of genuine Traxxas parts? — Whilst aftermarket options may be available, genuine Traxxas mounts are engineered to exact OEM specifications and guarantee perfect fitment and performance compatibility. Using genuine parts protects your investment and ensures your vehicle maintains the handling characteristics and reliability that Traxxas engineering provides.
- Is installation straightforward? — These are direct replacement components that install using standard RC tools and techniques. Most RC enthusiasts with basic mechanical skills can complete the installation. Consult your vehicle's manual for specific installation instructions and torque specifications to ensure proper fitment.
