Overview
The FTX Buzzsaw Spring (2pc) FTX0623 is an essential spare part for owners of the FTX Buzzsaw Xtreme 1/12 ATV vehicle. These precision-engineered springs are critical components that maintain the suspension geometry and handling characteristics of your RC model. Whether you're a dedicated hobbyist enjoying weekend bashing sessions or an experienced RC enthusiast pushing your vehicle to its limits, having quality replacement springs on hand ensures your RC car UK setup stays in peak condition. The Buzzsaw platform has established itself as a reliable choice in the 1/12 scale RC vehicle market, and these OEM springs are engineered to maintain the exact performance specifications that FTX designed into the original model.
Springs are among the most frequently replaced wear items in RC vehicles, particularly if you're running your Buzzsaw through demanding terrain or engaging in regular competitive driving. Over time, springs lose their tension and can become fatigued, leading to poor suspension response, inconsistent handling, and reduced overall performance. The FTX Buzzsaw Spring (2pc) replacement set allows you to restore your vehicle's suspension to factory specifications without compromising on quality or authenticity. These are genuine FTX parts, not aftermarket alternatives, which means they're manufactured to the exact same standards as the springs fitted to new Buzzsaw vehicles. For RC enthusiasts in the UK looking to maintain their fleet of RC models, these springs represent genuine value and peace of mind.
This two-piece spring set is straightforward to install, making it accessible to RC hobbyists of all skill levels. Whether you're performing routine maintenance, recovering from a crash, or simply refreshing your suspension setup, these springs will get your Buzzsaw back to performing as the engineers at FTX intended. Keep a spare set in your toolkit and you'll never be caught without the right parts for on-the-go repairs at the track or the bash spot.

Technical Performance
The FTX Buzzsaw Spring (2pc) represents precision engineering in miniature form. Springs are fundamental to suspension performance in RC vehicles, and their condition directly impacts how your Buzzsaw Xtreme handles across different terrain types and driving conditions. OEM springs like these are carefully calculated to match the vehicle's chassis geometry, motor power delivery, and intended driving characteristics. The Buzzsaw platform operates at 1/12 scale, and at this compact size, precise spring rates are essential for maintaining predictable handling, responsive steering input translation, and consistent traction control. Over extended use, even quality springs gradually lose their tension as the material fatigues from repeated compression and expansion cycles. This degradation is invisible to the naked eye but has measurable effects on suspension geometry, ride height, and ultimately vehicle handling. By replacing fatigued springs with fresh OEM components, you're restoring your vehicle to factory specifications. The springs are manufactured from high-grade materials selected to provide consistent performance across the temperature ranges experienced during typical RC driving sessions in the UK climate. These are the same springs fitted to new Buzzsaw Xtreme vehicles, so they integrate perfectly with your existing setup without requiring shims, adjustments, or modifications. Whether you're running your ATV on grass, dirt, gravel, or carpet surfaces, these springs will provide the suspension response that FTX engineers specified for optimal handling characteristics.
What's in the Box
Frequently Asked Questions
- What is the FTX Buzzsaw Spring (2pc) FTX0623 used for? — These springs are suspension components for the FTX Buzzsaw Xtreme 1/12 ATV vehicle. Springs support the chassis weight and absorb impacts from terrain, maintaining consistent ride height and suspension geometry. Over time with use, springs lose tension and require replacement to restore original handling characteristics.
- How do I know if my Buzzsaw needs new springs? — Signs that springs need replacement include sagging ride height, inconsistent handling feel between drives, slower suspension response, and difficulty maintaining consistent lap times. If your vehicle sits lower than it used to or feels wallowy through corners, new springs will likely restore performance.
- Are these genuine FTX parts or aftermarket replacements? — These are genuine OEM (original equipment manufacturer) FTX parts, meaning they are manufactured to the exact specifications and quality standards that FTX uses for new Buzzsaw vehicles. This guarantees compatibility and performance consistency.
- Will these springs fit my FTX Buzzsaw Xtreme? — Yes, these springs are specifically engineered for the FTX Buzzsaw Xtreme 1/12 ATV (model FTX0602BL). They are direct replacements and require no modification or adjustment to install.
- How often should I replace suspension springs on my RC vehicle? — This depends on driving intensity and frequency. Casual weekend bashers might replace springs annually, while competitive drivers who run multiple sessions per week may need replacements every few months. Springs are wear items and part of regular maintenance.
- Is professional installation required? — No, these springs are straightforward to install. Most RC enthusiasts can replace them using basic tools in 15-20 minutes. The installation process involves removing the old springs and installing the new ones, which is well within the capability of hobbyists of all experience levels.
- Should I replace both springs at once? — Yes, it's recommended to replace both springs at the same time to maintain consistent suspension characteristics across the vehicle. If only one spring is fatigued, the other is likely approaching the same condition, so replacing both ensures balanced handling.
