Technical Performance
The SR7 Caster Blocks, Steering Blocks and Rear Hub Set represents Team Associated's commitment to engineering suspension components that deliver precise geometry control and durable construction. These components are critical to the SR7's suspension system, as they directly affect caster angle, steering response, hub carriers and rear suspension geometry. The caster blocks determine the angle of the kingpin and influence how the suspension compresses and extends, affecting both handling feel and stability. The steering blocks are engineered to maintain accurate alignment and provide responsive steering input, essential for precision racing where small adjustments to suspension geometry can mean the difference between winning and losing at the track. The rear hubs complete the package by providing a proper mounting solution for the rear wheels and axles, ensuring that power is transferred efficiently from the differential to the ground. All components are manufactured to Team Associated's quality standards, ensuring they will fit perfectly with other SR7 parts and maintain the suspension geometry specifications that have made the SR7 a competitive choice for RC racing enthusiasts throughout the UK and beyond.

Frequently Asked Questions
- What is the difference between caster blocks and steering blocks on an RC car? — Caster blocks are suspension components that mount the wheels and determine caster angle, which affects how the suspension behaves during cornering and braking. Steering blocks are part of the front steering linkage and kingpin assembly, allowing the wheels to turn left and right. Together they form the complete front suspension geometry of your RC car.

- When would I need to replace these parts? — Caster blocks, steering blocks and hubs experience wear during racing and aggressive driving, particularly from impacts and the constant turning forces during cornering. If you notice loose steering, uneven handling or visible damage to these suspension components, it's time to replace them with this genuine set.
- Is this a complete front suspension replacement? — This set provides the caster blocks and steering blocks that form the core of the front suspension geometry, along with rear hubs. However, you may need additional parts like suspension arms, tie rods or turnbuckles depending on the condition of your overall SR7 suspension system. Check your SR7 manual to confirm which other parts might need replacement.
