Technical Performance
The AS92339 turnbuckles represent a precision engineering solution for 1/10 scale RC buggies and trucks. With their 3.5mm diameter and 58mm overall length, these steel components deliver substantially greater durability compared to plastic or lighter metal alternatives. The steel material composition ensures that these turnbuckles maintain dimensional consistency and strength throughout extended driving sessions, which is critical for maintaining proper suspension geometry and handling characteristics. For UK RC enthusiasts who regularly compete at trackdays or participate in club racing events, the superior material choice directly translates to reduced maintenance intervals and fewer mid-event failures. The turnbuckles have been engineered to integrate directly with the AS92308 ballcups, ensuring seamless fitment to RC10B74.2 platforms and backward compatibility with RC10B6, RC10T6 and RC10SC6 series vehicles. Whether you're fine-tuning suspension angles for competitive advantage or simply seeking a more durable component that will last longer during intensive recreational driving, these turnbuckles deliver the engineering quality and build standards that Team Associated is recognised for throughout the RC hobby community.

Frequently Asked Questions
- What is a turnbuckle and why do I need to upgrade mine? — Turnbuckles are suspension components that control suspension geometry and ride height in your RC vehicle. Upgrading to the durable steel AS92339 model provides increased strength and longevity, reducing the risk of failure during competitive driving or intensive use. They're particularly valuable if you're pushing your RC buggy or truck hard on UK tracks or rough terrain.

- Are steel turnbuckles better than plastic or aluminium alternatives? — Steel turnbuckles offer superior durability and strength compared to plastic options, making them ideal if you drive competitively or intensively. They maintain their geometry better under stress and provide longer service life, though they are slightly heavier than aluminium alternatives. For most UK RC drivers seeking reliability, steel is the preferred choice.
- How do I install these turnbuckles? — Turnbuckles typically screw onto ballcups on your suspension arms. Installation involves removing your existing turnbuckles and threading the new AS92339 units into place, adjusting length as needed to achieve your desired ride height and suspension geometry. Refer to your Team Associated vehicle manual for specific installation procedures.
- Are these suitable for beginners? — Whilst turnbuckles are suspension components that can be upgraded by users of any skill level, they're particularly valuable for competitive drivers or those pushing their RC vehicle hard. Beginners will benefit from the durability aspect, though standard components will suffice for casual recreational use.
- What makes these different from standard turnbuckles? — The AS92339 offers enhanced durability through steel construction and has been specifically engineered for the modern RC10B74.2 platform with compatibility with the AS92308 ballcups, providing optimised fitment and performance for current Team Associated vehicles.
