These replacement mounts are straightforward to install as part of routine maintenance or repair of your on-road RC chassis.

Technical Performance
The Team Associated TC7.2 is engineered as a precision racing platform for competitive on-road touring car competition, and every component including these outer arm mounts plays a vital role in delivering the handling and performance that drivers expect. Outer arm mounts are the connection points between the suspension arms and the chassis, and their condition directly affects suspension geometry, camber angles, and overall chassis responsiveness. When these mounts wear or develop play, the suspension geometry shifts, leading to unpredictable handling, increased tyre wear, and loss of cornering precision. By replacing worn mounts with genuine Team Associated parts, you restore the suspension to factory specifications with zero compliance or excessive play. The build quality reflects Team Associated's reputation for precision engineering—these are not generic or aftermarket alternatives but parts manufactured to the exacting standards that competitive racing demands. The mounts are designed to work seamlessly with the TC7.2's carefully tuned suspension geometry, which incorporates specific anti-roll bar arrangements, shock positions, and arm angles that deliver the nimble, responsive handling characteristics this chassis is known for. Whether you're running the TC7.2 on carpet or asphalt, indoors or at outdoor tracks, these genuine replacement mounts ensure your suspension performs as the designers intended.
