Overview
The FTX Supaforza Suspension Holders are essential chassis spare parts designed specifically for the FTX Supaforza GT 1/7th scale brushless electric RC car. Whether you're a dedicated RC enthusiast in the UK looking to maintain your high-performance machine or a competitive racer seeking reliable replacement components, these suspension holders deliver the precision engineering you need to keep your Supaforza running at peak performance. As part of FTX's comprehensive spares range, these holders ensure your suspension geometry remains perfectly aligned, which is critical for consistent handling and durability during intense driving sessions.
RC car UK enthusiasts know that suspension components are among the most heavily stressed parts on any vehicle, especially on a powerful 1/7th scale brushless RC model. The suspension holders are responsible for maintaining the correct mounting angles and clearances for your shock absorbers and suspension links. When these wear or become damaged through normal racing activity, performance and handling characteristics can suffer noticeably. That's why having genuine FTX replacement parts on hand is so important for any Supaforza owner who wants to maintain their investment and keep enjoying reliable, predictable driving dynamics.
At RC Model Shop, we stock authentic FTX spares to support your brushless RC car throughout its lifespan. These suspension holders represent the quality and precision that FTX is known for across their entire range of ready to run RC vehicles and spare parts. Whether you're replacing worn components or building a complete replacement chassis, these holders ensure compatibility and reliable performance with your FTX Supaforza GT.

Technical Performance
The FTX Supaforza Suspension Holders are precision-engineered chassis spare components designed for the demanding requirements of 1/7th scale brushless RC racing. These holders are critical to maintaining the suspension geometry and alignment on the FTX Supaforza GT, a high-performance 1/7th scale brushless electric vehicle powered by 8S LiPo batteries. The suspension system on a vehicle of this scale and power output experiences significant forces during acceleration, cornering, and braking, making the integrity of the mounting points absolutely essential. The holders maintain proper shock absorber positioning and ensure that suspension links remain at the correct angles relative to the chassis, which directly impacts handling response, traction delivery, and overall vehicle stability. Built to FTX's exacting standards using materials selected for their combination of strength, rigidity and weight efficiency, these suspension holders can withstand the stresses of competitive driving and regular bashful use. The precision manufacturing ensures that replacement holders fit exactly like the originals, with no binding, excessive play, or alignment issues that could compromise performance or cause premature wear to other suspension components.
