Key Features
- Moulded Construction — These camber and steering links are manufactured using precision moulding techniques, which creates components with consistent dimensions and superior strength compared to basic plastic alternatives. This manufacturing method ensures every link meets exact specifications and provides reliable performance over extended use.
- FTX Comet Specific Design — These links are engineered specifically for the FTX Comet platform, guaranteeing perfect fitment and compatibility with your existing chassis geometry. Using model-specific parts eliminates fitment issues and ensures you maintain the correct suspension geometry that FTX engineers have optimised.
- Suspension System Upgrade — As critical suspension components, these links directly influence your RC car's camber angle, caster angle and steering response. Upgrading to fresh, undamaged links can noticeably improve steering precision, cornering stability and overall handling across different terrain types.
- Genuine OEM Replacement — These are genuine FTX original equipment parts, not aftermarket alternatives. Genuine replacement components ensure you're using exactly what the manufacturer intended for your Comet, maintaining the vehicle's designed performance envelope.
- Essential Maintenance Item — Over time, constant bashing, impacts and rough terrain can wear or crack suspension links. Having replacement Comet links on hand means you're never far from getting back on the track when damage occurs, minimising downtime between sessions.
- Affordable Maintenance Solution — At just £3.49 retail price, these replacement links represent excellent value for money as a wear item, ensuring that maintaining your FTX Comet remains genuinely affordable compared to many other RC brands.
Technical Performance
The FTX Comet Moulded Camber & Steering Links are manufactured using modern moulding techniques that create precise, durable components capable of withstanding the stresses of off-road RC driving. These suspension links form part of the critical geometry system that determines how your Comet's wheels sit relative to the chassis, affecting everything from tyre wear patterns to steering response and cornering performance. The moulded construction provides consistent wall thickness and strength throughout each component, resisting the impacts and stresses that plastic suspension parts typically encounter during aggressive rock crawling or high-speed bashing. FTX has engineered these links to work in perfect harmony with the Comet's suspension layout, maintaining the precise camber and steering angles that deliver the vehicle's legendary handling and off-road capability. Whether you're running your Comet on rocky trails, through technical crawl courses or across open terrain, these links maintain the suspension geometry needed for predictable, controlled performance. The design specifically addresses the needs of modern RC crawlers, providing the geometric adjustability and reliability that serious pilots demand from their machines.

Frequently Asked Questions
- Are these links compatible with my FTX Comet RC crawler? — Yes, these FTX9033 links are designed specifically for the FTX Comet platform. They are genuine OEM replacement parts manufactured by FTX for this model, ensuring perfect fitment and compatibility with your existing Comet chassis and suspension system.
- How often do I need to replace camber and steering links? — Suspension links are wear items that degrade over time through normal use, impacts and stresses from rough terrain. Most RC enthusiasts replace links when they notice handling changes, or proactively every 12-24 months depending on how frequently and aggressively they drive their vehicles. Having spares on hand is always a smart approach.
- What difference will new links make to my RC car's handling? — Worn or damaged suspension links can cause handling to feel vague, imprecise or unpredictable, with steering response becoming sluggish. Fresh links restore the precise suspension geometry, resulting in improved steering response, better cornering grip, more predictable handling and reduced tyre wear patterns across your Comet.
- Can I install these links myself, or do I need professional help? — Installation of suspension links is well within the capability of most RC enthusiasts with basic tools. FTX vehicles are known for user-friendly design and straightforward maintenance. However, if you're uncertain about the process, our knowledgeable team at RC Model Shop can provide guidance or point you towards detailed setup guides.
- Is this a genuine FTX part? — Yes, absolutely. These FTX9033 links are genuine OEM (original equipment manufacturer) parts produced by FTX, not aftermarket copies or alternatives. Purchasing genuine parts ensures quality, durability and proper fitment with your Comet.
- What is the difference between moulded and other link types? — Moulded links like these are manufactured using precision injection moulding, which creates consistent dimensions, uniform strength and excellent durability. This is superior to cast or machined alternatives for cost-effective mass production, delivering reliable performance at an affordable price point that serious RC enthusiasts appreciate.
