Overview
The FTX Vantage/Carnage Post For Rear Spur Gear Cover is an essential spare part for owners of FTX 1/10 scale RC buggies and trucks. This pack contains two replacement posts that form a critical part of your vehicle's rear gear cover assembly. Whether you're a dedicated RC enthusiast in the UK running an FTX Vantage or Carnage model, or you've experienced wear and tear on your existing posts, this genuine FTX spare ensures your RC car remains in peak condition and maintains its original performance characteristics.
Keeping your RC vehicle in top shape requires access to quality replacement parts, and these posts are engineered to the same exacting standards as the original components fitted to new FTX ready to run models. The rear spur gear cover is crucial for protecting your vehicle's transmission and drivetrain components from dirt, debris and damage during off-road running. When the posts that hold this cover in place wear out or break, performance and protection both suffer. By investing in genuine FTX replacement posts, you're ensuring your brushed or brushless RC buggy or truck continues to deliver the reliability and durability FTX is renowned for across the UK RC hobby community.
This is an ideal upgrade for maintenance enthusiasts and serious RC bashers who want to keep their Vantage, Carnage, or Bugsta models running smoothly season after season. Stock a spare set to have on hand for quick repairs at the track or during weekend bashing sessions.
