Team Associated Reflex 14B 14T FT Anti-Roll Bar Kit 1.0 1.2 AS21564

Overview

The Team Associated FT Anti-Roll Bar Kit (AS21564) is an essential upgrade and genuine Factory Team component designed specifically for the Team Associated Reflex 14B and Reflex 14T 1:14 scale RC buggies. This precision-engineered anti-roll bar kit provides two selectable bar options—1.0 and 1.2—allowing you to fine-tune your RC car's handling characteristics and cornering performance to match your driving style and track conditions. Whether you're a serious competitor looking to optimise your setup or an enthusiast wanting to improve your RC buggy's performance, this Factory Team upgrade delivers the professional-grade quality you'd expect from Team Associated's trusted lineage of championship-winning RC platforms.

Anti-roll bars, also known as sway bars or anti-sway bars, are critical suspension components that reduce body roll during cornering, improving stability, grip and overall handling precision. For 1:14 scale RC buggies like the Reflex 14B and 14T, selecting the correct anti-roll bar stiffness makes a measurable difference in lap times and driving consistency. The included 1.0 and 1.2 options give you flexibility to experiment and discover the perfect setup for your specific track surface, whether that's carpet, astro turf, dirt or tarmac. This is exactly the kind of adjustability that defines Team Associated's performance-focused engineering philosophy, which has made them leaders in off-road RC racing for over 40 years.

If you're building a Reflex 14B kit from scratch or upgrading an existing RC buggy, this Factory Team anti-roll bar kit is a must-have component. It's a genuine Associated part carrying full compatibility with the Reflex 14B and 14T platforms, ensuring perfect fit and optimal performance. Available now at RC Model Shop, this is the upgrade serious RC enthusiasts and racers in the UK choose to unlock the full potential of their 1:14 scale buggies.

Key Features

• Dual bar options (1.0 and 1.2) — The kit includes two different anti-roll bar sizes, allowing you to select the stiffness that best suits your driving preferences, track conditions and setup strategy. A stiffer bar (1.2) reduces body roll more aggressively for more responsive cornering, whilst a softer bar (1.0) allows slightly more body movement for smoother, more forgiving handling on rough terrain.
• Factory Team genuine component — This is an official Team Associated Factory Team upgrade, manufactured to the same exacting standards as the Reflex 14B and 14T kits themselves. Genuine Factory Team parts are trusted by competitive racers and serious hobbyists because they're engineered alongside the vehicles they're designed for.
• Perfect compatibility with Reflex 14B and 14T — This anti-roll bar kit is specifically engineered for the Team Associated Reflex 14B and Reflex 14T 1:14 scale buggy platforms, guaranteeing perfect mechanical fit and optimal performance integration with your existing setup.
• Adjustable suspension tuning — Anti-roll bars are one of the key adjustable suspension elements (alongside turnbuckles, springs, shock fluids and shock tower hole placement) that allow you to dial in your RC buggy's handling characteristics. This kit gives you direct control over roll stiffness to improve corner speed and lap times.
• Improves grip and cornering performance — By reducing body roll during aggressive cornering, anti-roll bars increase the amount of tyre grip available, leading to faster, more controlled corner speeds and an overall more thrilling and responsive driving experience.
• Professional-grade racing component — Team Associated's Reflex 14B platform was designed with performance in mind, and this Factory Team upgrade reflects that competition DNA, delivering the adjustability serious racers need to stay competitive.

Technical Performance

The Team Associated Reflex 14B platform is engineered for maximum adjustability and performance, and anti-roll bars play a crucial role in that philosophy. The suspension geometry on the Reflex 14B includes three sealed differentials, an aluminium steering rack, and a lightweight aluminium centre driveshaft—all designed to maximise grip and corner speed. The anti-roll bar kit extends this commitment to adjustability by giving you two stiffness options to tune your vehicle's roll characteristics. A correctly tuned anti-roll bar reduces the amount of body roll your buggy experiences during high-speed cornering, which keeps your suspension geometry more consistent and your tyres at optimal contact angles for maximum grip. The 1.0 bar provides a baseline setup suitable for general use and smoother terrain, whilst the 1.2 bar offers increased stiffness for more aggressive setups and driver preferences where maximum responsiveness is desired. The Reflex 14B's internal gear ratio of 2.46:1 and 4WD drivetrain benefit significantly from optimised suspension tuning, as better roll control translates directly to more predictable throttle application and faster lap times. Whether you're competing on carpet, astro turf or dirt, the ability to adjust your anti-roll bar stiffness is one of the hallmarks of professional RC car setup. This Factory Team component fits seamlessly into the Reflex 14B's modular suspension design, allowing you to experiment with different combinations of springs, shock fluids, and bar stiffness to achieve your ideal handling balance.

Frequently Asked Questions

• What does an anti-roll bar do on an RC buggy? — An anti-roll bar (also called a sway bar or anti-sway bar) is a suspension component that reduces body roll during cornering. By limiting how much your RC buggy's chassis tilts side-to-side during turns, it keeps your suspension geometry more consistent, maintains better tyre contact angles, and improves overall grip and corner speed. This leads to faster lap times and more responsive, predictable handling.
• What's the difference between the 1.0 and 1.2 bars in this kit? — The numbers refer to the bar diameter or stiffness rating. The 1.2 bar is stiffer than the 1.0 bar, meaning it reduces body roll more aggressively. Choose the 1.0 for a softer, more forgiving setup, or the 1.2 for maximum responsiveness and cornering precision. The best choice depends on your track surface, driving style and personal preference.
• Which Team Associated Reflex models is this compatible with? — This Factory Team anti-roll bar kit is specifically designed for the Team Associated Reflex 14B and Reflex 14T 1:14 scale buggies. It will not fit other scales or vehicle types.
• Is this part suitable for beginners? — Yes, anti-roll bar adjustment is a fundamental part of RC buggy setup and tuning. Beginners can use this kit to learn how suspension adjustments affect handling. The two bar options make it easy to experiment—try the 1.0 for smooth, forgiving handling, then progress to the 1.2 as you develop your driving skills and want more responsive control.
• Will this part improve my lap times? — Absolutely. A correctly tuned anti-roll bar is one of the most important adjustments you can make to your RC buggy's setup. By optimising roll stiffness for your specific track and driving style, you'll notice immediate improvements in corner speed, confidence and consistency, which translates directly to faster lap times.
• Do I need any tools to install this? — Installation depends on your specific buggy setup. The kit includes all necessary hardware, but you may need basic hand tools for assembly. Refer to your Reflex 14B or 14T manual for detailed installation instructions, or contact RC Model Shop for guidance.
