Key Features

Counterfeit or incorrect parts can cause drivetrain failure and damage to surrounding components, so purchasing genuine parts protects your investment.
- 38.5mm Centre CVA Bone — The specific 38.5mm length is engineered to match the exact geometry of the RC10B84 drivetrain, providing perfect fitment and alignment. Using the correct length ensures smooth power transmission and prevents stress on the transmission and differential bearings.

Simply remove the worn or damaged bone and install the new one using the existing fasteners.
- Essential Maintenance Spare — The CVA bone is subject to constant rotational stress and wear during operation, especially in competitive driving or high-speed off-road conditions. Having a spare on hand allows you to perform maintenance without waiting for parts to arrive, keeping your RC buggy ready to run at all times.
- Suitable for RC10B84 and RC10B84D Models — This part is confirmed compatible with both the standard RC10B84 and the RC10B84D variant, giving you flexibility if you own multiple vehicles or are planning to upgrade. Always verify part numbers before ordering to ensure correct fitment for your specific buggy variant.
Technical Performance
The centre CVA bone is a precision-engineered driveline component that plays a vital role in the drivetrain of your RC buggy. CVA technology (Constant Velocity Axle) allows the bone to transmit torque smoothly across different angles whilst the suspension compresses and extends during cornering and jumps. This is why the exact length is so critical — the 38.5mm specification for the RC10B84 is calculated to maintain the correct angles and pre-load in the drivetrain system. The Team Associated AS92550 is manufactured to exacting tolerances using durable materials designed to withstand the stresses of off-road racing. Whether you're running a 2S or 3S LiPo powered RC buggy through rough terrain, this component must be able to handle repeated impact loads, high rotational speeds and the constant changes in suspension geometry that occur during aggressive driving. Genuine parts like this ensure the integrity of the entire drivetrain, preventing premature wear on the transmission, differential and motor. For any serious RC enthusiast maintaining their own buggy or running in competitive events, having genuine replacement parts available is essential for consistent performance.

Frequently Asked Questions
- What is a CVA bone and why is it important in my RC buggy? — A CVA (Constant Velocity Axle) bone is a driveline component that connects the transmission to the wheel axles whilst allowing for suspension movement and angle changes. It transmits engine power to the wheels and must flex to accommodate the up-and-down motion of the suspension. If this component becomes worn, damaged or bent, it can cause poor handling, drivetrain noise and even complete loss of drive to one or both rear wheels. The centre bone specifically handles the forward and rearward power distribution through the central transmission area of the buggy.
- Will this part fit my RC10B84? — Yes, the AS92550 is specifically engineered as a replacement centre CVA bone for the RC10B84 and RC10B84D models. The 38.5mm length is the correct specification for these vehicles. Always verify that you have the RC10B84 or RC10B84D before ordering, as using an incorrect length bone can cause misalignment and drivetrain problems.
- How often should I replace the centre CVA bone? — The lifespan depends on your driving style and conditions. Aggressive off-road racing, frequent jumps and high-speed driving will wear the bone faster than casual weekend bashing. Most competitive drivers keep spare bones on hand and replace them as part of regular maintenance, typically every few months of heavy use. For occasional drivers, it may last much longer. Inspect your bone regularly for cracks, bending or wear, and replace it if you notice any damage or if the buggy starts making clicking sounds during cornering.
- Can I use aftermarket bones instead of genuine Team Associated parts? — Whilst some aftermarket suppliers offer CVA bones at lower prices, genuine Team Associated parts are engineered to exact specifications and manufactured to consistent quality standards. Counterfeit or incorrect parts may cause fitment issues, premature wear and even damage to your transmission. For a critical drivetrain component like this, purchasing genuine parts from an authorised retailer ensures reliability and protects your investment in your RC buggy UK.
- What tools do I need to replace this part? — Replacing the centre CVA bone typically requires basic RC tools: a hex wrench or Allen key set to remove the fasteners holding the old bone, and potentially a small screwdriver or pick to remove any clips or retainers. The exact tools needed may vary depending on your buggy's design, so consult your RC10B84 manual for specific instructions. No special tools or technical knowledge is required beyond basic RC maintenance skills.
- Is this part suitable for beginners? — The centre CVA bone itself is a simple replacement part, but replacing it requires some mechanical knowledge and comfort working with RC drivetrains. If you're new to RC car UK maintenance, we recommend having an experienced RC technician perform the replacement, or taking your buggy to a local RC hobby shop for installation. Once you're familiar with your vehicle's layout, it's a straightforward task for future replacements.
