Frequently Asked Questions
- What is the purpose of the arm mount on my RC buggy? — The arm mount is a critical suspension component that connects the suspension arm to the chassis, maintaining precise geometry that affects steering response, handling balance and overall vehicle performance. A worn mount will degrade handling consistency and may cause unpredictable behaviour during cornering or acceleration.

- How often should I replace my arm mount? — This depends on usage intensity and driving style. Regular high-speed racing or aggressive bashing will wear components faster than casual use. If you notice handling inconsistencies, difficulty turning, or physical damage to the mount, replacement is recommended.
- Why choose genuine Team Associated parts over aftermarket alternatives? — Genuine Factory Team parts are engineered to exact specifications and manufactured to the highest quality standards. Aftermarket alternatives may vary in dimensions or material quality, potentially compromising handling precision and durability. For serious RC racing in the UK or dedicated hobbyists, genuine parts provide the reliability and consistency needed for competitive performance.
