Key Features
- Stainless Steel Construction — The pins are manufactured from premium stainless steel that resists corrosion and maintains structural integrity through repeated use, ensuring your suspension remains responsive and reliable whether you're running in wet British conditions or dry summer terrain.
- Enhanced Durability — Stainless steel pins provide superior strength compared to standard suspension components, meaning they can handle aggressive driving, jumps, and impacts without bending or breaking, extending the service life of your suspension system significantly.
- E-Clip Retention System — The complete set includes E-clips that securely retain the pins in place, preventing accidental loss during high-speed runs and rough driving, which is critical when you're pushing your RC vehicle to its maximum performance potential.
- Captured Pin Design — The pins are secured by button-head screws and retaining caps that capture the pins for extremely secure installation, eliminating the risk of pins working loose or falling out mid-run.
- Low-Friction Finish — The premium finish on these suspension pins delivers super-smooth suspension performance, allowing your vehicle's suspension to articulate freely without binding or catching, which translates directly into better traction and handling on varied terrain.
- Complete Installation Hardware — Every item needed for installation is included in the box, so you won't need to source additional fasteners or components when upgrading your suspension system.
- Illustrated Installation Instructions — Step-by-step instructions make the installation process straightforward, even for RC enthusiasts who are upgrading their vehicles for the first time.
Technical Performance
The Traxxas Suspension pin Set delivers substantial performance improvements through careful material selection and engineering. Constructed from premium-grade stainless steel, these pins resist corrosion from moisture exposure and maintain their structural properties through countless suspension cycles. The low-friction finish ensures that your suspension articulates smoothly without resistance, which is essential for maintaining consistent traction whether you're navigating rocky terrain, muddy British woodland tracks, or smooth racing circuits. The inclusion of sixteen inner and outer pins covers the upper and lower suspension arms completely, whilst the four steering block kingpins provide comprehensive coverage for the entire suspension geometry. The button-head screw and retaining cap design ensures these pins stay in place during aggressive driving, jumps, and high-speed runs, eliminating suspension geometry changes caused by pin migration. This is a performance-critical upgrade that directly impacts handling, traction, and the durability of your suspension linkages, making it an essential component for anyone running a ready to run RC car, competitive racer, or serious basher who demands reliability.

Compatibility and Fitment
The Traxxas Suspension pin Set (TRX2739) is designed as a direct replacement for the screw-in suspension pins found on Traxxas Maxx vehicles. The set is also fully compatible with the Traxxas WideMaxx kit (8995), meaning if you're running either platform, this suspension upgrade will integrate seamlessly without requiring any modifications or additional parts. Before ordering, verify that your Traxxas RC vehicle uses compatible suspension pin mounting points to ensure correct fitment.
Frequently Asked Questions
- Which Traxxas models is this suspension pin set compatible with? — The TRX2739 is designed as a direct replacement for suspension pins on the Traxxas Maxx and is also compatible with the WideMaxx kit. These are the primary platforms this set is engineered for, though you should verify your specific vehicle model before ordering to ensure compatibility.
- Why should I upgrade to stainless steel suspension pins instead of using factory components? — Stainless steel pins offer superior corrosion resistance compared to standard steel, better durability under stress, and a low-friction finish that delivers smoother suspension performance. For UK RC enthusiasts who run in variable weather conditions, the corrosion resistance alone makes this upgrade worthwhile, as it prevents rust and degradation even after muddy or wet runs.
- How difficult is it to install these suspension pins? — Installation is straightforward for anyone with basic mechanical skills and a few simple tools. The set comes with illustrated instructions that walk you through the process step-by-step, and the button-head screw and retaining cap system makes installation much easier than screw-in pin alternatives. Most users can complete the installation in under an hour.
- Will these pins improve my RC car's handling? — Yes, the low-friction finish of these stainless steel pins allows your suspension to articulate more freely without binding, which translates into more responsive handling and better traction, especially on rough or uneven terrain. The captured pin design also prevents suspension geometry changes during aggressive driving, maintaining consistent handling characteristics throughout your run.
- Are these pins suitable for both casual bashers and competitive racers? — Absolutely. Whether you're a weekend basher who wants maximum durability, a competitive racer who demands reliability, or anywhere in between, these stainless steel suspension pins deliver the performance and longevity you need. The enhanced durability means fewer replacements and less downtime, whilst the smooth suspension performance benefits every driving style.
- What makes these suspension pins better than standard factory components? — Factory suspension pins are typically made from hardened steel but can corrode or wear over time. The stainless steel construction in this set resists corrosion, the low-friction finish provides smoother suspension articulation, and the captured pin design with E-clips and retaining caps provides more secure retention than standard screw-in pins, all of which combine to deliver superior performance and longevity.
