"Remember to use lock tite on the small set screw."
"I got new control arms, redid the suspension, and put on the sway bar kit to keep my wheels planted because the front inside wheel around every corner would come up."
"My truck handles so much better now."
"Works awesome spins out more instead of flipping, and easier to drive on two wheels."
"Simple design that works well."
As a bonus, RPM cut 6.5 grams of weight off of each A-arm for a total loss of just under one ounce of weight simply by replacing your stock A-arms with the RPM versions. RPM A-arms for the Traxxas Slash 4x4 are everything you’ve come to expect from RPM and more! Take a look at everything we’ve done: We eliminated the slop in the suspension system, tightening the tolerances around the hinge pins, reduced the fore and aft movement of the A-arms at both the inner hinge pin and at the axle carriers by better than 90% and improved the durability dramatically (they’re made by RPM, enough said). The upper hinge pin hole of the rear axle carriers cannot be used due to strengthening designs that reduce the clearance around the rear axle.
