The FTX Vantage Rear Lower Suspension Arms deliver the durability and precision fit that FTX models are known for, maintaining the original performance characteristics your buggy was designed with.
These parts are designed to work seamlessly with your existing FTX Vantage setup, ensuring that replacement is straightforward and doesn't compromise the vehicle's handling balance or suspension geometry. Whether you're restoring a damaged arm or upgrading to a fresh set for competitive racing or recreational bashing, this genuine FTX component is the reliable choice for Vantage owners across the UK.
Key Features
- Genuine FTX Component — These are authentic parts manufactured by FTX specifically for the Vantage model range, ensuring perfect compatibility and maintaining your vehicle's original suspension performance and geometry without compromise.
- Pair of Two Arms — The pack includes two suspension arms, which is the complete set needed for rear suspension replacement, saving you from having to purchase multiple single units and ensuring matched, consistent performance.
- Drop-in Replacement — Designed as a direct replacement for the original equipment, installation requires no modification to your chassis or other components, meaning you can restore full suspension function quickly and easily.
- OEM Specification Design — These arms maintain the exact geometry and specifications of the original parts, preserving your buggy's handling characteristics, turning response, and overall suspension performance that you've tuned for.
- Affordable Spare Part — At a competitive price point, these suspension arms represent excellent value when you consider the cost of complete suspension damage repair or replacement of the entire buggy, making them a sensible investment for regular users.
Technical Performance
The FTX Vantage Rear Lower Suspension Arms are engineered using durable plastic construction that balances strength with weight, allowing for responsive suspension movement whilst resisting the stresses of competitive driving and aggressive bashing. These components are critical to your buggy's suspension geometry, working in conjunction with the upper arms, shocks, and chassis to maintain proper wheel alignment and suspension travel. The rear lower arms control the up-and-down motion of the wheels whilst maintaining the correct anti-squat and anti-dive characteristics that affect your buggy's acceleration, braking, and cornering behaviour. When properly installed with undamaged arms, your FTX Vantage delivers consistent handling across varying terrain types and driving intensities. The suspension arms are shaped to provide optimal clearance for large suspension travel, ensuring your shocks can extend and compress fully without obstruction. For owners of the FTX Vantage 2.0 Brushed Buggy 1/10 4WD RTR or the FTX Vantage 2.0 1/10 Brushless Buggy 4WD RTR models, these parts restore your vehicle to factory performance specifications. Whether you're running stock setup or have upgraded to performance shocks and springs, maintaining genuine suspension geometry with OEM-specification arms ensures your tuning changes have the desired effect on handling.

Frequently Asked Questions
- Are these genuine FTX parts or aftermarket replacements? — These are genuine FTX components manufactured to original equipment specifications, ensuring perfect fit and compatibility with your FTX Vantage buggy without any modification required.
- How do I know if my rear lower suspension arms need replacement? — Visible bending, cracking, or breaking of the arms themselves indicates replacement is needed. Additionally, if your buggy pulls to one side, has uneven suspension response left to right, or you've had a hard crash affecting the rear suspension area, inspection and replacement may be necessary to restore handling performance.
- Will replacing the suspension arms affect my buggy's handling? — When you install new, undamaged arms, your buggy returns to its design handling characteristics. Bent or broken arms cause poor handling, uneven suspension response, and altered geometry. Replacement restores proper suspension function and the handling you expect from your FTX Vantage.
- Which FTX models are these compatible with? — These rear lower suspension arms are specifically designed for the FTX Vantage 2.0 Brushed Buggy 1/10 4WD RTR (model FTX5533B) and the FTX Vantage 2.0 1/10 Brushless Buggy 4WD RTR with LiPo Battery and Charger (model FTX5561B). Always verify your specific buggy model before ordering.
- Is installation difficult? — Installation is straightforward and requires only basic tools. The arms connect to the suspension hubs and chassis using the original mounting points, making replacement a simple maintenance task even for less experienced users. Refer to your FTX Vantage manual for detailed installation instructions.
- Should I replace suspension arms one at a time or as a pair? — For the best handling consistency, it's recommended to replace both rear lower arms at the same time to ensure matched performance characteristics left and right. This pack conveniently provides both arms needed for complete rear suspension renewal.
- Are there upgraded versions available? — Yes, FTX offers aluminium upgraded rear lower suspension arms as an alternative to these standard plastic parts. Aluminium arms provide increased durability and are suitable if you want to upgrade from the stock components or are looking for longer-lasting parts for heavy use.
