Overview
The Traxxas Turnbuckles, camber link, 49mm (63mm centre to center) (TRX7431) are essential suspension tuning components designed for RC car enthusiasts across the UK who want to fine-tune their vehicle's handling characteristics. These adjustable camber links are precision-engineered steel components that allow you to make critical adjustments to your RC model's wheel alignment, directly affecting cornering performance, tyre wear, and overall stability during competitive racing or weekend bashing sessions. Whether you're running a Traxxas 1/10 scale RC buggy, monster truck, or stadium truck, these turnbuckles represent a must-have upgrade for anyone serious about maximising their RC car's potential.
Camber adjustment is a fundamental aspect of RC car tuning that separates casual drivers from dedicated hobbyists. By adjusting the camber angle—the angle of your wheels relative to the vertical—you can dial in the perfect setup for different track conditions, driving styles, and weather. These genuine Traxxas turnbuckles come fully assembled with rod ends and hollow balls, meaning they're ready to install straight from the box with no additional components required. The left and right pair configuration ensures balanced suspension geometry, which is critical for predictable handling and competitive lap times on any RC track in the UK or beyond.
RC Model Shop stocks genuine Traxxas suspension components because we understand that quality matters when it comes to your RC car performance. These camber links are manufactured to Traxxas's exacting standards and will integrate seamlessly with your existing Traxxas RC model, whether you're upgrading an older vehicle or fine-tuning a brand new ready-to-run RC car purchase.
Key Features
- Fully Assembled with Rod Ends and Hollow Balls — These turnbuckles arrive completely assembled and ready to install, featuring pre-fitted rod ends and hollow balls that connect securely to your suspension arms and chassis mounting points, saving you time and ensuring proper installation without additional hardware.
- 49mm Turnbuckle Length with 63mm Centre-to-Centre Measurement — The specific 49mm overall length combined with the 63mm centre-to-centre dimension provides the precise geometry needed for proper suspension articulation and camber adjustment on compatible Traxxas models, ensuring your RC car maintains optimal wheel alignment throughout aggressive cornering and acceleration.
- One Left and One Right Configuration — The pair includes one left-hand and one right-hand turnbuckle, allowing you to adjust camber symmetrically across both front or rear suspension points for balanced handling characteristics and even tyre wear patterns across your RC buggy or truck.
- Steel Construction for Durability — Built from high-quality steel, these camber links withstand the stresses of competitive RC racing and bashing, resisting bending and deformation even under the demanding loads experienced during jumps, landings, and high-speed cornering that RC car enthusiasts in the UK regularly encounter.
- Genuine Traxxas Component — As an official Traxxas spare part, these turnbuckles are engineered to work perfectly with Traxxas RC models, maintaining the reliability and performance standards Traxxas owners have come to expect from the brand's suspension systems.
- Adjustable Camber Tuning — The threaded turnbuckle design allows infinitesimal adjustment of camber angle, letting you dial in the perfect setup for your specific track conditions, driving style, and weather—a crucial advantage for competitive RC car drivers looking to shave milliseconds off lap times.
Technical Performance
These Traxxas camber links represent precision engineering designed specifically for RC suspension tuning. The steel construction provides the rigidity needed to maintain consistent geometry under the intense forces generated during RC car racing and aggressive off-road driving. The 49mm turnbuckle length has been carefully calculated to provide the correct suspension geometry for compatible Traxxas models, ensuring that your camber adjustments translate directly into predictable handling improvements. The rod ends and hollow balls feature smooth rotation, allowing your suspension to articulate freely without binding or causing undue stress on other suspension components. The adjustable nature of these turnbuckles means you're not locked into a single setup—you can experiment with different camber angles to find the sweet spot for your driving style, whether you favour aggressive cornering on tight UK racetracks or high-speed bashing across rough terrain. The left and right pair ensures symmetrical adjustment across your RC vehicle's front or rear axle, which is essential for maintaining balanced weight distribution and predictable handling characteristics. Quality Traxxas components like these are built to survive the demands of competitive racing environments whilst remaining affordable enough for enthusiasts to upgrade and maintain their RC cars without breaking the bank.

Frequently Asked Questions
- What is a camber link and why do I need to adjust it on my RC car? — Camber is the angle of your RC car's wheels relative to vertical. Adjusting camber affects how much of your tyre contacts the ground during cornering, which directly influences grip, tyre wear, and handling. Too much positive camber (wheels tilted outward) reduces cornering grip, whilst too much negative camber (wheels tilted inward) can cause uneven tyre wear. These turnbuckles let you fine-tune camber to match your track conditions and driving style, improving lap times and tyre longevity.
- Are these turnbuckles compatible with all Traxxas RC models? — These 49mm turnbuckles with 63mm centre-to-centre measurement are designed for specific Traxxas models. Before purchasing, verify compatibility with your specific Traxxas RC car model by checking your vehicle's manual or contacting our team at RC Model Shop, who can confirm fitment for your particular buggy, truck, or truggy.
- Do I need any tools to install these camber links? — Installation typically requires basic RC tools including hex wrenches and potentially a turnbuckle wrench, depending on your specific model. The turnbuckles themselves come fully assembled, so you simply need to disconnect your old camber links and bolt these in place—a straightforward upgrade that most RC enthusiasts can complete in under ten minutes.
- Can I adjust these turnbuckles without removing them from the car? — Yes, one of the primary advantages of adjustable camber links is that you can make fine adjustments without completely removing them. Simply turn the turnbuckle to lengthen or shorten it slightly, which adjusts your camber angle. This makes it easy to experiment with different setups during a racing session or practice day.
- What's the difference between these steel camber links and other brands? — These are genuine Traxxas components engineered specifically for Traxxas suspension geometry, ensuring perfect fitment and performance integration with your Traxxas RC car. Many aftermarket alternatives vary in length or quality, potentially compromising your suspension alignment. Choosing genuine Traxxas parts guarantees you're installing components designed to work with your specific model.
