Overview
The ARRMA Front Suspension Arm Set D (2): MINI is an essential replacement or upgrade component for owners of the ARRMA 1/16 MINI KRATON 3S brushless speed monster truck. Whether you're a seasoned RC enthusiast running your machine hard on weekends or a competitive racer pushing the limits of your RC car, suspension arms are among the most frequently replaced parts due to the extreme forces they endure during high-speed runs, jumps and impacts. This genuine ARRMA part ensures your vehicle maintains optimal suspension geometry and performance characteristics, keeping your ready to run RC monster truck in peak condition.
Suspension arms are critical chassis components that directly affect your RC car's handling, stability and cornering performance. The front suspension arms connect your vehicle's wheel hubs to the main chassis, allowing the suspension to articulate and absorb impacts whilst maintaining precise wheel alignment. When arms become bent or cracked from crashes—an inevitable part of RC bashing—they compromise handling and can cause uneven tyre wear and unpredictable steering behaviour. Having a quality replacement set on hand ensures you can get back on the track or field without extended downtime.
This set is engineered specifically for ARRMA's MINI KRATON platform, meaning every dimension, pivot point and connection has been optimised for this vehicle's suspension geometry. ARRMA is recognised globally as a leading manufacturer of brushless RC trucks and buggies, and their parts meet exacting standards for fit, finish and durability. Whether you're shopping for RC car spares in the UK or anywhere else, choosing OEM (original equipment manufacturer) parts like this suspension arm set guarantees compatibility and performance.
Key Features
- Tough Composite Material — These suspension arms are moulded from composite material engineered to deliver exceptional crash resistance and durability during the most extreme RC action, meaning they can withstand repeated impacts and harsh landings without permanent deformation or fracture.
- Precision Moulding — Each arm is precision-moulded to exacting tolerances, ensuring smooth suspension operation in all conditions and maintaining the exact geometry required for consistent handling, steering response and tyre contact patch.
- Complete Front Suspension Set — The package includes both upper and lower suspension arms, providing a comprehensive solution for a full front suspension refresh or repair on your MINI KRATON 3S.
- Genuine ARRMA OEM Parts — As official manufacturer parts, these arms guarantee perfect compatibility with your vehicle and maintain the performance characteristics engineered into your machine.
- Essential Replacement Parts — Suspension arms are wear and damage items in RC bashers and racers, making this set a practical item to keep in your spares box for quick field repairs or maintenance.
Technical Performance
The ARRMA Front Suspension Arm Set D (2) is constructed from composite material, a choice that reflects years of suspension engineering development. Composite materials offer an optimal balance between strength and weight, providing sufficient rigidity to maintain precise suspension geometry whilst remaining light enough to minimise unsprung mass and preserve responsive handling characteristics. The precision moulding process ensures that each arm meets exact dimensional specifications, critical for maintaining proper wheel camber, caster and toe-in angles. The set includes (2) upper front suspension arms and (2) lower front suspension arms—a complete paired set for the front end of your MINI KRATON 3S. Also included are (4) 7mm x 7mm x 2.5mm pivot balls, the critical components that allow the arms to articulate smoothly at their connection points. These pivot balls create the hinge points between the suspension arms and chassis, and their precise tolerances are essential for smooth, predictable suspension action under all driving conditions. The material composition and design have been validated across countless racing and bashing sessions by ARRMA customers worldwide, giving you proven durability and performance you can rely on.

Frequently Asked Questions
- What are front suspension arms and why would I need to replace them? — Front suspension arms are the chassis components that connect your wheels to the main frame and allow the suspension to compress and extend. During normal RC bashers and racing, these arms absorb impacts from jumps, crashes and rough terrain. Over time, composite arms can crack, bend or develop stress fractures that affect handling and tyre wear. Having a replacement set ensures you can quickly swap out damaged arms and get back into action without waiting for repairs.
- Will these suspension arms fit my ARRMA MINI KRATON? — Yes, these are genuine ARRMA OEM parts specifically engineered for the 1/16 MINI KRATON 3S brushless speed monster truck. They will fit all variants of this model including the standard RTR version and battery/charger bundle versions, ensuring perfect compatibility and optimal performance.
- What makes ARRMA suspension arms better than aftermarket alternatives? — ARRMA OEM parts are engineered by the vehicle's designers using the same materials, moulds and quality standards as the original suspension arms that came with your truck. This ensures exact fit, optimal geometry and proven durability. Aftermarket parts may offer cost savings but can vary in material quality and dimensional accuracy, potentially affecting handling characteristics.
- Are these suspension arms easy to install? — Replacing suspension arms requires basic RC mechanical knowledge including the ability to disconnect and reconnect pivot ball connections. Most experienced RC enthusiasts can perform this upgrade themselves using standard Allen keys and screwdrivers. If you're new to RC car maintenance, your local RC hobby shop or experienced RC community members can provide guidance or installation support.
- How long do suspension arms typically last? — Arm lifespan depends entirely on your driving style and conditions. Casual weekend bashing on moderate terrain may see arms last many months, whilst competitive racing or extreme bashing on rough terrain may result in damage within weeks. Keeping a spare set on hand is a prudent investment for active RC enthusiasts.
- Is this a complete front suspension replacement? — This set includes the suspension arms and pivot balls for the front end. Depending on your vehicle's condition, you may also need replacement shocks, shock springs, anti-roll bars or other chassis components. Check your specific MINI KRATON for other wear items that may need attention.
