Technical Performance
This suspension arm mount represents the pinnacle of RC suspension engineering for serious UK racers and enthusiasts. Manufactured from 6061-T6 aluminium—the same material used in aerospace applications—and processed through precision CNC machining, every component delivers consistent performance and reliability that you can depend on lap after lap. The hard anodising process creates a dense oxide layer on the aluminium surface, significantly improving hardness and corrosion resistance compared to standard anodising, which means this component will continue performing flawlessly even after exposure to wet conditions, salt spray, and mud typical of British RC racing venues and outdoor bashing sessions. The 8mm bore diameter is engineered to work with industry-standard suspension linkages found on modern RC vehicles, particularly the Corally Asuga XLR 6S and Kagama XP 6S ranges, but also compatible with numerous aftermarket RC car components from other manufacturers. The heavy-duty HD specification indicates this component is engineered with thicker material sections and optimised internal geometry to handle the extreme stresses generated by 6S LiPo batteries, brushless motors producing thousands of RPM, and aggressive racing conditions. Whether you're running 3S, 4S, or 6S power systems in your RC model, this suspension mount will maintain its structural integrity and performance characteristics, ensuring your suspension geometry remains true and your handling remains predictable throughout extended racing sessions.

Frequently Asked Questions
- Which Corally RC models does this suspension arm mount fit? — This HD suspension arm mount is confirmed compatible with the Corally Asuga XLR 6S (available in Roller, RTR Brushless versions and in Blue, Red, and Green colours) and the Corally Kagama XP 6S Brushless Truck (both RTR and Roller variants, also available in Blue, Red, and Green). If you own a different Corally model, please check your vehicle's documentation or contact our team at RC Model Shop to confirm compatibility before purchasing.
- What does the FR-RE designation mean on this suspension mount? — FR-RE indicates this component is suitable for both Front and Rear suspension positions on compatible vehicles. This means you can use the same part type on either end of your RC vehicle, simplifying spare parts inventory and making replacement straightforward if you damage a suspension component during racing or bashing sessions.
- Why choose this HD heavy-duty version over standard suspension mounts? — The heavy-duty specification features increased material thickness and optimised internal geometry specifically designed to handle the extreme forces generated by high-performance brushless RC systems running 6S LiPo batteries. Standard mounts may flex or bend under these conditions, affecting your vehicle's handling consistency and potentially leading to failure during competitive racing. The HD version maintains structural rigidity and ensures your suspension geometry remains true, delivering more predictable handling and greater reliability during demanding driving sessions typical of UK RC racing competitions.
- What material is this suspension mount made from, and why does it matter? — This mount is crafted from 6061-T6 aluminium, an aerospace-grade alloy renowned for its exceptional strength-to-weight ratio. Unlike cheaper plastic or lower-grade aluminium components, 6061-T6 offers superior rigidity and durability whilst maintaining light weight that doesn't negatively impact your RC vehicle's performance, acceleration, or battery runtime. The hard anodised finish adds a protective oxide layer, dramatically improving corrosion resistance and surface hardness compared to standard finishes.
- Is this a direct replacement for my factory Corally suspension mount? — Yes, this HD suspension arm mount is designed as both a replacement for worn factory components and as an upgrade to heavier-duty specification. It uses the same 8mm bore size and mounting dimensions as the original Corally components, allowing for bolt-on installation without modification. However, always verify compatibility with your specific model before purchasing, particularly if you own an older or less common Corally vehicle.
- Will this component work with my custom RC setup? — The 8mm bore size is industry-standard for RC suspension linkages, so this mount should be compatible with numerous aftermarket and custom RC car setups beyond just Corally models. The FR-RE designation means it can be used in either front or rear suspension positions on compatible vehicles, providing flexibility for custom builds and racing setups.
- How do I install this suspension arm mount? — Installation is straightforward and requires no special tools beyond standard RC maintenance equipment (Allen keys, ball-end driver tools, and possibly a suspension stand). Simply remove your old suspension mount by unbolting the linkage connections, slide the new HD mount into position, and reconnect your suspension arms and tie-rods. If you're unfamiliar with RC suspension work, our team at RC Model Shop is happy to provide guidance or perform the installation service for you.
- Does this component require any maintenance? — Like all aluminium suspension components, periodic cleaning and inspection is recommended, particularly after muddy or wet RC sessions. Simply rinse with fresh water and allow to dry. The hard anodised finish resists corrosion effectively, but avoid abrasive cleaners that might damage the protective coating. No lubrication is required on the mount itself, though your suspension linkage ball-ends should be regularly lubricated with light silicone grease.
