AS91889

Overview

The Team Associated B6.2 FT Rear Ballstud Mount +2mm Black (AS91889) is a genuine Factory Team option part designed for serious RC buggy racers and enthusiasts in the UK who demand precision tuning capabilities. This specialised component is engineered for the legendary RC10 B6 platform, a lineage that has won 13 of the 18 I.F.M.A.R. World Championships since the racing class began. Whether you're competing on high-grip carpet, turf tracks, or preparing your 1/10 scale off-road buggy for club racing, this ballstud mount offers critical geometry adjustment to fine-tune your vehicle's handling characteristics and suspension response.

Team Associated has been the dominant force in 2WD off-road RC racing since the release of the iconic RC10 in 1984, and they have won more 2WD I.F.M.A.R. World Championships than all other manufacturers combined. The B6.2 continues this winning tradition with a carefully engineered chassis platform optimised for high-grip carpet or turf track surfaces. The rear ballstud mount is one of the many precision tuning parts available within the extensive B6 ecosystem, allowing drivers to dial in the exact rear suspension geometry needed for their specific track conditions and driving style. This is not a beginner part—it's a competition-grade upgrade for racers who understand the importance of micro-adjustments in pursuit of lap-time improvements.

If you're building a competitive RC10 B6.2 buggy or upgrading an existing chassis, the Factory Team Rear Ballstud Mount +2mm provides the precision engineering Team Associated is renowned for. Available now at RC Model Shop, your trusted UK RC retailer, this genuine part comes ready to integrate into your setup immediately.

Key Features

• +2mm Offset Position — This ballstud mount provides a +2mm rear ballstud position relative to the standard mounting point, allowing drivers to adjust their rear suspension geometry for fine-tuned handling on different track surfaces and conditions. The offset measurement is critical for adjusting anti-squat, roll centre position, and overall suspension response characteristics.
• Genuine Factory Team Component — As an official Team Associated Factory Team part, this mount is manufactured to the same exacting standards as all components in the RC10 B6 platform, ensuring perfect fitment and durability under competitive racing conditions.
• Black Anodised Finish — The part features a premium black anodised aluminium construction, providing excellent durability, corrosion resistance, and a professional race-ready appearance on your chassis.
• Precision Machining — Like all Team Associated components, this ballstud mount is precision-engineered from high-quality materials to exact specifications, ensuring consistent performance and reliability across multiple racing events.
• Modular Design Integration — The B6.2 platform features a new modular vertical ballstud camber link mount system, and this rear ballstud mount integrates seamlessly with the overall suspension architecture for optimal geometry adjustment.
• Wide Model Compatibility — This part is compatible with multiple Team Associated models including the RC10B6.1, RC10B6.1D, RC10B6.1DL, RC10B6.2, RC10B6.2D, RC10B6.3, RC10B6.3D, RC10SC6.1, RC10SC6.2, RC10T6.1, and RC10T6.2, making it a versatile upgrade option for various platforms.

Technical Performance

The Team Associated B6.2 platform represents the cutting edge of 1/10 scale 2WD off-road buggy design, engineered specifically for high-grip carpet and turf track racing. The chassis features lightweight 7075-T6 hard anodised aluminium construction with optimised geometry that delivers consistent handling across a wide range of track conditions. The rear suspension geometry is critical to the vehicle's performance, and the ability to adjust ballstud mounting positions in increments like this +2mm option allows drivers to fine-tune anti-squat characteristics, adjust the roll centre, and modify the overall suspension response. The B6.2 features symmetric 75mm rear arms with improved geometry that can be flipped to allow multiple rear shock mounting positions, demonstrating Team Associated's commitment to tunability. Combined with the 3-gear Laydown Stealth transmission designed for lower and forward centre of gravity, the precision adjustments enabled by parts like this rear ballstud mount contribute to the platform's dominance in competitive racing. The part integrates with the vehicle's 12mm Big Bore threaded aluminium shock system and works in conjunction with the differential height adjustment system (0, 1, 2, and 3mm inserts included on the full kit) to provide comprehensive suspension tuning options. This is engineering at the highest level of RC racing.

Frequently Asked Questions

• What does the +2mm offset mean on this ballstud mount? — The +2mm measurement indicates this mount positions the rear ballstud 2 millimetres forward or outward from the standard mounting position. This small but significant adjustment affects your buggy's anti-squat angle, suspension geometry, and how the chassis responds to acceleration, braking, and cornering forces. Drivers use different offset mounts to tune their setup for specific track conditions—smoother tracks might benefit from different geometry than rough or bumpy surfaces.
• Is this part suitable for beginners? — This is a competition-grade tuning component best suited to experienced RC racers and enthusiasts who understand suspension geometry and setup tuning. Beginners building their first RC10 B6.2 buggy can use this part, but they should first understand the fundamentals of RC buggy suspension before attempting detailed geometry modifications. Team Associated provides extensive documentation and setup guides to help drivers optimise their vehicles.
• Which Team Associated buggies does this fit? — This rear ballstud mount is compatible with the entire RC10 B6 family including the B6.1, B6.1D, B6.1DL, B6.2, B6.2D, B6.3, B6.3D, and also the SC6.1 short course truck, SC6.2, and T6.1 and T6.2 touring cars. The modular design of Team Associated's current platform means many parts interchange across multiple models.
• What other ballstud mount options are available? — Team Associated offers this component in different offset positions to provide drivers with multiple geometry tuning options. The equivalent blue anodised version (AS91888) is also available, offering the same mechanical function in a different colour finish for aesthetic or team-colour matching purposes.
• Do I need special tools to install this part? — Installation requires standard RC car tools including hex drivers and ballstud removal tools. Team Associated supplies the FT Hex/Nut Driver Tool Set (#1519) and FT 7-Piece 1/4 inch Hex Driver Set (#1650) which contain everything needed for installation. You may also want needle nose pliers and standard hobby tools for ballstud installation.
• Is this an official Team Associated part? — Yes, this is a genuine Factory Team component manufactured by Team Associated to exact specifications. It carries the full warranty and support of the manufacturer, ensuring you're purchasing authentic racing-grade equipment for your RC buggy.
