Upgrade the handling and durability of your drift machine with this Aluminum Front Upper Suspension Arm Set. Designed specifically for the Redcat RDS (Rear Wheel Drive Drift Sport), these arms replace the stock plastic components with precision-machined aluminum.
In drifting, front-end rigidity is key. The stock plastic arms can flex under the high side-loads of holding a deep angle, causing your alignment (camber/caster) to wander mid-drift. These stiff aluminum arms eliminate that flex, ensuring your steering geometry stays locked in for more consistent and predictable slides.
Key Features
-
CNC Aluminum: Machined from high-quality aluminum alloy for maximum stiffness and a premium look.
-
Eliminates Flex: By removing the "squish" of the stock plastic, these arms provide a more direct feel to the steering and suspension response.
-
Direct Fit: Designed as a drop-in replacement for the factory RDS upper arms, requiring no heavy modification to install.
-
Anodized Finish: Typically finished in a striking anodized color (often Red or Black, matching the RDS Pro aesthetic) to add "bling" to your chassis.
