Black anodized rear upper arms for Hotshot chassis

This aluminum rear upper arm set is produced for TAMIYA Hotshot and Super Hotshot 1/10 electric buggies and carries model number JR-THS05-BK. They act as direct rear upper arm replacements and are supplied in a black anodized finish to increase stiffness over factory plastic arms.

Stiffer rear upper arms alter suspension compliance and can help keep toe and camber settings more consistent during cornering and under load. These parts are designed to use the stock mounting points; in many installations the factory hinge pins and original fasteners can be reused if they fit correctly.

Use these arms as part of a broader suspension setup change - they change how the rear end reacts but do not substitute for correct shock or spring choices. Always check for interference with gearcases, body mounts, and other vintage Hotshot layout components when fitting.

A practical hop-up for older Hotshot platforms where reduced flex and repeatable rear geometry are needed; verify any extra hardware required before fitting.

The aluminum construction is significantly more rigid than stock plastic, reducing the chance of deformation under load and improving repeatability for aggressive driving.
Anodizing provides a protective surface; regular cleaning to remove grit and light corrosion prevention (where applicable) keeps the finish in good condition.
Because the arms lower compliance, you may notice different feedback from the rear; it is common to revisit shock settings and camber/toe adjustments after installation.
In many cases the original hinge pins and hardware fit, but you should confirm dimensions and thread engagement before relying on old fasteners.
