This JR-THS07-LB aluminum rear lower suspension arm set is an aftermarket option for TAMIYA Hotshot and Super Hotshot 1/10 buggies. The set is intended to replace the stock plastic lower rear arms with a more durable aluminum part to improve longevity under regular running conditions.
Fit and installation notes: the arms are produced to align with the original mounting points on Hotshot and Super Hotshot chassis. Check the fit against your rear hub and mount points before final assembly, and retain any original spacers and pins where applicable. Restored or heavily modified cars may need slight trimming or adjustment of nearby components; always verify tyre clearance and shock travel after fitting.
Tuning notes: swapping to aluminum lowers increases structural rigidity at the rear lower link and will change rear-end response, especially during snaps and landings. The result is a firmer rear feel relative to stock plastic arms; balance this with adjustments to springs and shock damping to achieve the desired handling.
For hobbyists running Hotshot series cars, these JR-THS07-LB aluminum arms are a straightforward upgrade to boost rear-end durability and alter suspension stiffness when used as part of a wider setup change.
