Precision Aluminum Rear Upper Arms for Hotshot

This machined aluminum rear upper suspension arm set is a hop-up replacement designed for scale RC use on Tamiya Hotshot and Super Hotshot chassis. The red-anodized parts are made to match stock mounting geometry so they fit directly where original attachment points align.

These arms provide a firmer link compared with standard plastic pieces, helping retain consistent suspension geometry during tuning. Installation typically follows the stock arm removal and refit steps; existing pins and hardware can often be reused when compatible. After fitting, check clearance and ensure the suspension articulates smoothly through its travel.

A straightforward aluminum upgrade for hobby drivers seeking a stiffer link and more repeatable suspension behavior during setup and track testing.

Can I reuse the stock mounting pins when fitting these arms?

In many cases the stock pins and screws will fit these replacement arms because the mounting geometry is intended to match the originals; verify fit before final assembly and replace any worn hardware if necessary.

What basic tools do I need to swap the arms?

Typical RC hand tools such as hex drivers, small pliers, and a screwdriver are usually enough. Work methodically and keep track of small parts to avoid alignment issues during reassembly.

Will these aluminum arms noticeably change handling?

Aluminum arms generally stiffen the suspension link compared with plastic, which can improve consistency but may also alter the vehicle's feel; incorporate them into your tuning process rather than expecting an instant improvement.

How should I inspect and maintain the arms?

Regularly check for burrs, loosening fasteners, or any signs of deformation. Ensure free movement through the range of travel and tighten hardware to the correct settings after a short test run.
