Technical Performance
Suspension mount inserts may seem like small components, but they play a vital role in the overall geometry and performance of your FTX MK2RS rally car. These inserts support the suspension arms and control the critical angles at which your wheels contact the track surface. By adjusting or replacing these components, you can modify your vehicle's camber angle, which affects tyre wear, grip levels, and cornering performance. The engineering behind suspension geometry is fundamental to rally racing success—even small adjustments can make measurable differences in lap times and handling consistency. FTX has designed these inserts as precision components that maintain tight tolerances and repeatability, essential qualities for any serious RC racer competing in rally events. The materials and construction methods used ensure that these inserts won't degrade or shift under the dynamic loads experienced during aggressive cornering, acceleration, and braking. Whether you're tuning your setup for tarmac, gravel, or mixed-surface courses, having quality suspension geometry components is non-negotiable. These genuine FTX parts maintain the exact specifications that your MK2RS was engineered around, ensuring that your suspension modifications will perform as intended without introducing unwanted variables into your setup.

Frequently Asked Questions
- What is the difference between suspension mount inserts and other suspension components? — Suspension mount inserts are the precise interface points where your suspension arms connect to the chassis. They control suspension geometry angles like camber and toe-in. Unlike shocks or springs that manage movement and dampening, inserts are about geometry setup and can be swapped to adjust how your car sits and handles before it even moves.
- Will these suspension mount inserts improve my MK2RS performance? — These inserts themselves don't add performance, but they enable you to optimise your suspension geometry for better handling. By adjusting the angles at which your wheels contact the track, you can improve grip, reduce tyre wear, and achieve faster cornering speeds. They're essential for fine-tuning your setup once you understand suspension geometry.
- Are these compatible with all FTX rally cars or just the MK2RS? — These suspension mount inserts are specifically engineered for the FTX MK2RS 1/10th Brushless Rally Car, including both the FTX5470BK black and FTX5470W white variants. They are not compatible with other FTX rally models or non-FTX vehicles without modification.
- How often should I replace my suspension mount inserts? — Suspension mount inserts are durable components, but they can wear over time, especially with intensive racing or if you're constantly adjusting your setup. If you notice loose suspension feel, inconsistent handling, or if your geometry measurements shift unexpectedly, it's time to check your inserts for wear and replace them if necessary.
- Do I need special tools to install these suspension mount inserts? — These inserts are designed for straightforward installation with standard RC hobby tools. You'll typically need hex drivers and wrenches appropriate to your MK2RS, but no specialist equipment is required. If you're unfamiliar with suspension work, our team at RC Model Shop can provide guidance.
- Can I use these inserts to adjust my suspension geometry myself? — Yes, these genuine FTX inserts allow you to experiment with different suspension geometry setups. However, suspension tuning requires understanding of camber, toe-in, and caster angles. We recommend starting with your vehicle's baseline setup and making small adjustments while testing performance changes on track.
