Traxxas Hardened Steel Rear Suspension Pin Set TRX10941

Overview

The Traxxas Suspension pin set, rear (left or right) (hardened steel) TRX10941 is an essential upgrade component for serious RC enthusiasts and competitive racers in the UK who demand the highest performance and durability from their off-road RC cars. Whether you're pushing your Traxxas Funco Motorsports Pro Scale 8S 2WD Electric Sand Car to its limits across challenging terrain or fine-tuning your suspension geometry for maximum traction, this hardened steel rear suspension pin set delivers the reliability and precision you need. As a critical part of your vehicle's suspension system, these pins directly influence handling characteristics, cornering performance and overall chassis stability during high-speed runs and aggressive driving.

Suspension pins are fundamental components that connect your RC car's suspension arms to the main chassis, and the quality of these pins determines how effectively your suspension can respond to terrain changes and driver input. The Traxxas hardened steel construction ensures these pins resist bending, wear and fatigue far better than standard steel alternatives, making them the preferred choice for weekend bashers and serious competitors alike. If you're running a Traxxas sand car and want to maintain peak performance, upgrade your suspension geometry, or simply replace worn pins with genuine OEM components, this rear suspension pin set from Traxxas is the perfect solution for any RC car UK enthusiast.

This is not a complete suspension overhaul – it is a precision spare part designed to work seamlessly with your existing Traxxas Funco Motorsports sand car. Two sets are required per axle, allowing you to have a full complement of rear suspension pins for optimal suspension tuning and reliability during intense RC driving sessions.

Key Features

• Hardened Steel Construction — These suspension pins are manufactured from hardened steel, which significantly increases their resistance to bending, deformation and metal fatigue compared to standard steel pins, ensuring they maintain their exact dimensions and performance characteristics even under extreme racing loads and aggressive driving conditions.
• Complete Pin Set with Multiple Diameters — The set includes four different pin lengths and diameters: 4x64 mm pins, 4x38 mm pins, 4x33 mm pins, and 4x47 mm pins, giving you the flexibility to adjust suspension geometry and fine-tune your RC car's handling characteristics for different driving styles and track conditions.
• Left or Right Side Compatibility — These pins are designed to work on either the left or right side of your vehicle's rear axle assembly, providing maximum flexibility when replacing worn components or building new suspension configurations.
• Genuine Traxxas OEM Component — As an official Traxxas part, this suspension pin set is manufactured to exact factory specifications, ensuring perfect fitment and compatibility with your existing Funco Motorsports sand car without modifications or adjustment.
• Two Sets Required Per Axle — Understanding that a complete rear axle assembly requires multiple pin sets, Traxxas has engineered this product knowing you will likely need to purchase two sets to fully equip your vehicle, allowing for organised bulk purchasing and consistent upgrades.
• Perfect for Suspension Tuning — By offering multiple pin lengths, this set allows experienced RC racers to adjust suspension geometry, alter anti-roll bar positions, and fine-tune handling balance for different track surfaces and driving techniques.

Technical Performance

The Traxxas Suspension pin set, rear (hardened steel) TRX10941 represents a significant step up from standard suspension pins found in basic RC cars. The hardened steel material undergoes specialised heat treatment to increase its hardness and tensile strength, making these pins substantially more durable than untreated steel alternatives. This engineering choice is particularly important for RC car users in the UK who regularly engage in aggressive bashing sessions, competitive racing, or high-speed runs across rough terrain. The set's inclusion of four different pin configurations – the 64 mm, 47 mm, 38 mm, and 33 mm lengths – demonstrates Traxxas's commitment to allowing racers to customise their suspension geometry precisely. Each pin diameter and length combination affects how the suspension arms connect to the chassis, influencing everything from ride height to anti-roll bar stiffness to overall suspension compliance. The pins are manufactured to tolerances tight enough that they maintain perfect fit within suspension arm bushings and chassis mounting points, eliminating slop and ensuring responsive, predictable handling. For users of the Traxxas Funco Motorsports Pro Scale 8S 2WD Electric Sand Car in any colour variant (red, blue, orange, or green), these pins are the original manufacturer's replacement components, guaranteeing compatibility and performance. The requirement for two sets per axle reflects the professional-grade engineering of Traxxas sand cars, which use dual suspension pin configurations for enhanced stability and load distribution during high-speed driving.

Frequently Asked Questions

• Which Traxxas models is this rear suspension pin set compatible with? — This TRX10941 suspension pin set is specifically designed for the Traxxas Funco Motorsports Pro Scale 8S 2WD Electric Sand Car, including all colour variants: red (TRX109076-4-RED), blue (TRX109076-4-BLUE), orange (TRX109076-4-ORNG), and green (TRX109076-4-GRN). If you own any of these sand car models, these pins are genuine OEM replacements.
• Why do I need two sets of suspension pins per axle? — The Traxxas Funco Motorsports sand car uses a dual suspension pin configuration on each axle for enhanced stability, load distribution and handling precision. A single set provides four pins of each length, which covers one complete axle assembly. Purchasing two sets ensures you have pins for both sides of the rear axle, allowing you to maintain consistent suspension geometry and performance across the entire vehicle.
• What is the advantage of hardened steel suspension pins over standard steel? — Hardened steel pins resist bending, deformation and metal fatigue significantly better than untreated steel, maintaining their exact dimensions through thousands of driving cycles. This means your suspension geometry stays accurate, your handling remains consistent, and you'll replace these pins far less frequently than standard alternatives – a crucial advantage for competitive RC racers and serious weekend bashers.
• Why are there four different pin lengths in this set? — The different lengths (64 mm, 47 mm, 38 mm, and 33 mm) allow you to adjust suspension geometry and suspension arm angles, fine-tuning how your sand car handles different terrain and driving styles. Experienced racers use different pin configurations for different track conditions, and having this variety lets you optimise performance without purchasing multiple separate kits.
• Are these pins genuine Traxxas parts? — Yes, the TRX10941 is an official Traxxas OEM component manufactured to exact factory specifications. These are not aftermarket alternatives – they are the genuine parts Traxxas uses in their Funco Motorsports sand cars, guaranteeing perfect fitment and performance.
• How often should I replace my suspension pins? — Suspension pins wear gradually through normal use. If you notice increased slop in your suspension, poor handling response, or visible wear in the pin ends or bushings, it is time to replace them. Competitive racers often replace pins regularly to maintain consistent geometry and performance. Having a spare set on hand is always wise for serious RC car UK enthusiasts.
