Overview
The Team Corally Suspension Arm Mount XB Front is a precision-engineered aluminium upgrade part designed specifically for the Corally Spark XB6 6s Brushless Basher Buggy. Whether you're a dedicated RC enthusiast in the UK looking to enhance your vehicle's performance or a weekend basher seeking to improve durability and handling characteristics, this front suspension arm mount delivers professional-grade quality at an affordable price point. This CNC-machined component is manufactured from premium 6061-T6 aluminium, making it a significant step up from standard plastic alternatives and ideal for anyone serious about maintaining their RC car UK hobby.
Built with precision and attention to detail, this suspension arm mount is perfect for both tuning upgrades and replacement parts. RC hobbyists across the UK who demand reliability and performance will appreciate the engineering that goes into each component. The hard anodised finish ensures longevity and resistance to wear, whilst the 4mm thickness provides the structural integrity needed for consistent performance during high-energy driving sessions and challenging terrain.
If you own a Corally Spark XB6 6s Brushless Basher Buggy in any colour variant—whether that's the green, blue or red RTR models, or the roller versions—this suspension arm mount is the genuine Team Corally spare part you need. It's categorised as a chassis tune-up option, meaning it's an intelligent upgrade choice for drivers looking to fine-tune their vehicle's suspension geometry and overall handling.
Key Features
- CNC-Machined Construction — Every component is precision-engineered using Computer Numerical Control machining, ensuring exact tolerances and perfect fitment to your Corally Spark XB6 every single time, eliminating the frustration of loose or misaligned parts.
- 6061-T6 Aluminium Material — This aerospace-grade aluminium alloy is recognised worldwide for its excellent strength-to-weight ratio, superior durability and resistance to corrosion, making it far more durable than plastic alternatives commonly found on budget RC cars.
- Hard Anodised Finish — The hard anodising process creates a protective oxide layer on the aluminium surface that dramatically increases wear resistance and prevents oxidation, ensuring your suspension mount maintains its structural integrity through countless driving sessions.
- Front Suspension Positioning — Purpose-designed as a front suspension component, this mount directly influences your vehicle's ride height, anti-squat geometry and overall suspension behaviour, directly impacting cornering performance and stability during acceleration and braking.
- 4mm Thickness — The 4mm gauge provides the optimal balance between lightweight efficiency and structural rigidity, ensuring the component won't flex under load while keeping unsprung weight to a minimum for responsive handling.
- Genuine Team Corally Part — This is the authentic OEM (original equipment manufacturer) spare part, guaranteeing perfect compatibility and the same quality standards applied to new vehicles, giving you confidence in your purchase.
- Black Colour Option — The elegant black finish complements any Corally Spark XB6 colour scheme whilst maintaining a professional, race-ready appearance that looks as good as it performs.
Technical Performance
The Team Corally Suspension Arm Mount XB Front represents a significant engineering achievement in RC component design. Manufactured from 6061-T6 aluminium—the same material trusted in automotive and aerospace applications—this mount delivers exceptional rigidity whilst remaining lightweight enough not to compromise your vehicle's overall performance. The CNC-machining process guarantees concentricity and perfect geometry, which directly translates to predictable suspension behaviour and consistent lap times. The hard anodised finish isn't merely cosmetic; it's a functional treatment that increases surface hardness and provides corrosion protection, extending the lifespan of your investment considerably. At 4mm thickness, this component strikes the perfect engineering balance: substantial enough to withstand the forces generated by a 6s brushless motor without deflecting, yet efficient enough to minimise rotational inertia. For drivers of the Corally Spark XB6 6s Brushless Basher Buggy, upgrading from the stock plastic suspension mounts to these aluminium variants can noticeably improve mid-corner stability, reduce geometric changes under load, and provide a more planted, predictable driving experience. Whether you're pushing through technical tight courses or wide-open bashing terrain, the improved rigidity of this aluminium mount ensures your suspension geometry remains consistent, allowing you to focus entirely on driving technique rather than worrying about component flex or deflection.

Frequently Asked Questions
- Is this suspension arm mount compatible with my Corally Spark XB6? — Yes, this genuine Team Corally OEM part is specifically designed to fit the Corally Spark XB6 6s Brushless Basher Buggy. It's compatible with all colour variants including the green, blue and red RTR models, as well as the roller versions. The part number C-00180-973 is the exact specification required for your vehicle.
- What does a suspension arm mount do on an RC car? — The suspension arm mount is a critical component that secures your vehicle's suspension arms to the main chassis. It directly determines the geometry of your suspension, affecting ride height, anti-squat, caster angle and overall handling characteristics. Upgrading to this aluminium version instead of using plastic mounts reduces deflection under load, maintaining consistent suspension geometry during aggressive driving and resulting in more predictable, planted handling.
- Why should I choose aluminium over plastic suspension mounts? — Aluminium offers several critical advantages over plastic: it's significantly more rigid, preventing flexing under the forces generated by a 6s brushless motor; it's more durable and resistant to damage from impacts and UV exposure; the hard anodised finish resists corrosion and wear; and it maintains its dimensions and geometry longer, ensuring your carefully-tuned suspension setup remains consistent across multiple driving sessions. For RC enthusiasts in the UK who take their hobby seriously, aluminium upgrades like this are considered essential chassis modifications.
- Do I need any tools to install this suspension arm mount? — Installation requires basic RC tools including hex keys and potentially a small screwdriver, depending on your current setup. We recommend consulting your Corally Spark XB6 manual for detailed installation instructions. If you're new to RC car maintenance, our experienced team at RC Model Shop can provide guidance or installation support.
- Is this a spare part or a tuning upgrade? — This component serves as both. It's classified as a spare part, meaning it's a direct replacement if your existing suspension mount is damaged or worn. However, it's also an intelligent tuning upgrade because the aluminium construction offers measurable performance improvements over the plastic stock components in terms of rigidity and geometry consistency.
- Will this part fit my RC buggy from a different manufacturer? — No, this is a proprietary Team Corally part designed specifically for the XB platform. It will not fit buggies from other manufacturers or even other Team Corally platforms. Always verify compatibility using the official part specifications before purchasing.
