Overview
The FTX Rear Lower Suspension Arms for Carnage are essential replacement spares designed to keep your FTX RC truck performing at its best. Whether you're a dedicated RC enthusiast in the UK or someone who enjoys weekend bashing with their ready to run RC vehicle, suspension components are among the most frequently replaced parts on any RC car due to the demands of off-road driving. These rear lower suspension arms are engineered to provide reliable performance and are manufactured to OEM specifications, ensuring perfect fitment and durability on your FTX Carnage model.
Suspension arms are critical to your RC truck's handling characteristics, stability, and overall driving experience. The rear lower suspension arms work in conjunction with the upper suspension arms, shocks, and anti-roll bars to manage weight transfer, maintain tyre contact with the ground, and absorb impacts from rough terrain. When these components become worn, bent, or damaged from crashes and heavy use, replacing them with genuine FTX spares is the best way to restore your truck to factory specifications and maintain the performance you expect from your investment.
These suspension arms are compatible with a range of FTX models including the FTX Carnage 2.0 in both brushed and brushless variants, the FTX Carnage NT nitro truck, and several other FTX platforms such as the Bugsta, Khaos, and Zorro models. This broad compatibility makes these arms a valuable addition to any RC enthusiast's spares box, particularly if you own multiple FTX vehicles. At RC Model Shop, we stock genuine FTX spares in the UK, ensuring you get authentic parts that fit perfectly and perform reliably every time you take your RC truck out for a run.

Technical Performance
The FTX Rear Lower Suspension Arms represent a critical component in the suspension geometry of your RC truck. Suspension arms work as pivot points between the chassis and the wheels, transferring forces and maintaining the relationship between the body and the ground as your vehicle tackles uneven terrain, jumps, and cornering manoeuvres. The rear lower arms specifically control the lower suspension geometry on the rear axle, working alongside upper arms to create a double-wishbone or A-arm suspension configuration that provides excellent stability and control. These arms are machined and formed to precise tolerances to ensure they deliver consistent suspension action, proper roll centre geometry, and optimised anti-squat characteristics during acceleration and braking. The materials chosen for FTX spares are selected to provide adequate strength without excessive weight, maintaining the performance balance of your ready to run RC truck. When paired with undamaged upper arms, proper shock absorbers, and correctly adjusted anti-roll bars, these rear lower suspension arms will help your Carnage deliver the handling and control you expect from a quality 1/10 scale 4WD truck or truggy platform.

Frequently Asked Questions
- Are these FTX Rear Lower Suspension Arms compatible with my FTX Carnage? — Yes, these arms are designed specifically for the FTX Carnage range and are compatible with the FTX Carnage 2.0 brushed truck, the FTX Carnage 2.0 brushless truck, and the FTX Carnage NT nitro truck. They will fit perfectly without modification.
- What other FTX models will these suspension arms fit? — Beyond the Carnage range, these rear lower suspension arms are also compatible with the FTX Bugsta 4WD brushed buggy, the FTX Khaos 1/10 brushless truggy, and the FTX Zorro Trophy Truck models, making them useful spares if you own any of these vehicles.
- How often will I need to replace my suspension arms? — Suspension arms typically need replacement after crashes, collisions, or when they become bent from hard impacts. With normal recreational use on a ready to run RC vehicle, quality suspension arms should last several seasons, though heavy racing or competitive use may require more frequent replacements.
- Do I need any special tools to install these arms? — No special tools are required. Standard RC car tools such as hex drivers, screwdrivers, and possibly a small hammer or mallet for removing and installing ball cups will be sufficient to replace your suspension arms.
- Why should I buy genuine FTX spares rather than aftermarket alternatives? — Genuine FTX spares are manufactured to original specifications, ensuring perfect fitment, matching materials, and consistent performance. Genuine parts maintain your truck's suspension geometry, handling characteristics, and overall performance as designed by the manufacturer.
- How do I know if my suspension arms are damaged? — Bent suspension arms will cause handling issues, uneven tyre wear, wheel alignment problems, and may result in pulling to one side during driving. Visual inspection will reveal obvious bends or cracks. If your truck has suffered a significant impact or crash, replacing the suspension arms is a sensible precaution.
