Frequently Asked Questions

• What are turnbuckles used for on an RC touring car? — Turnbuckles are threaded suspension components that allow you to adjust the length of suspension links and suspension ride height on your RC car. By turning the barrel, you can change suspension geometry, which affects handling characteristics like traction, cornering speed and stability. This adjustability is essential for tuning your vehicle to different track conditions and driving styles.
• Are these genuine Associated parts? — Yes, the AS1402 are genuine Team Associated Factory components manufactured to the same specifications and quality standards used in competition-grade setups. As official Factory Team spares, they ensure compatibility and performance with your Associated TC4, TC5 or TC6 touring car.
• What is the difference between 35mm and other turnbuckle sizes? — The 35mm length is the correct specification for Associated TC-series touring cars. Using the wrong size would alter your suspension geometry incorrectly and negatively impact handling and performance. The 35mm measurement (1.375 inches) is precisely engineered for these platforms.
• Do I need more than one set of these turnbuckles? — Most RC touring cars use multiple turnbuckles in the suspension system (typically in front and rear suspension links). You may need several sets depending on your specific vehicle configuration and how many suspension adjustment points you want to be able to tune.
• Can I use these on other RC car models? — These turnbuckles are specifically engineered for the Associated TC4, TC5 and TC6 models. While they may physically fit other vehicles, we recommend using manufacturer-specified components for optimal compatibility and performance.
• What makes titanium turnbuckles better than other materials? — Titanium offers an excellent combination of strength, light weight and corrosion resistance. This means your turnbuckles will remain reliable through many hours of running, practice sessions and racing, whilst contributing minimal weight to your overall RC car setup.
