Technical Performance
The FTX Centaur Link 90mm components are precision suspension elements critical to your trail vehicle's performance characteristics. These links work as part of the Centaur's suspension geometry, connecting key pivot points and maintaining proper wheel alignment and suspension travel. The 90mm specification is engineered specifically for the FTX Centaur 4WD platform, which is designed as a 1/10th scale rock crawler and trail vehicle. By maintaining correct suspension geometry through these replacement links, you ensure your vehicle maintains its intended handling balance, articulation, and response to terrain. The materials and construction methods used in FTX spare parts are designed to withstand the demands of off-road RC driving, from rocky trails to rough terrain. These links experience significant stress during suspension articulation and impact absorption, so using genuine FTX components ensures durability and reliability. The two-piece format of this kit makes installation straightforward, allowing you to perform maintenance and repairs at home without requiring specialist equipment or expertise.
