For RC enthusiasts in the UK seeking quality spare parts for their micro RC collection, this genuine Carisma component offers reliable performance and perfect fitment with no compatibility issues.

Body post extenders are critical tuning components in the RC car world, allowing you to modify ground clearance, adjust centre of gravity, and customise your vehicle's handling characteristics.

  • Which Carisma RC cars is the GT24i20 Body Post Extender compatible with? — This body post extender is compatible with the Carisma GT24 Subaru Impreza STI 2006 1/24 micro RTR (CA83268), the Carisma GT24 Toyota AE86 H2 Concept 1/24 micro RTR (CA88868), the Carisma GT24RS 1/24th retro micro rally car (CA80468), and the Carisma GT24R 1/24th 4WD brushless micro rally car in red (CA57968). If you own any of these models, this extender will fit perfectly.
  • What does a body post extender do on an RC car? — A body post extender allows you to adjust the distance between your vehicle's chassis and body shell, effectively modifying ground clearance and ride height. This tuning capability enables you to customise your RC car's handling characteristics, adjust centre of gravity, and optimise performance for different track layouts and driving conditions.
  • Why would I need to replace my body post extender? — Body post extenders are subject to regular wear during normal RC driving, and they can be damaged through impacts, crashes, or heavy cornering stress. Keeping spare extenders in your toolkit ensures you can quickly replace a worn or damaged unit and maintain your vehicle's setup consistency without interrupting your racing schedule.
  • Is this suitable for beginners? — This is primarily a replacement and tuning spare part rather than a beginner entry-level product. However, if you already own a compatible Carisma GT24 model, understanding how to use body post extenders for chassis tuning is a valuable skill that will enhance your RC driving experience and competitive performance.
  • Can I use this extender on other RC car brands? — No, this extender is specifically engineered for Carisma's GT24 range and is not compatible with other brands' micro RC cars. Using non-compatible parts may result in poor fitment, handling problems, or damage to your vehicle, so always use genuine Carisma spares.
