Alloy front bulkhead for Rustler VXL

This alloy front arm bulk is an aftermarket replacement designed specifically for TRAXXAS 1/10 Rustler VXL vehicles. It replaces the stock plastic bulk and offers a stiffer pivot point that influences steering geometry and camber behaviour during driving.

Installation follows standard procedures: remove the front suspension assembly, replace the bulkheads, verify pin and bearing seating and reassemble using thread locker where recommended. No specialist workshop gear is necessary beyond common hex keys and a wrench set, though trial fitting before full reassembly is advised.

For tuning, upgrading to an alloy bulk can reduce unwanted movement at the pivot, delivering a more consistent steering feel when adjusting turn-in and mid-corner balance. Use this part on 1/10 Rustler VXL models as specified for repairs or setup changes.

Fit the RUS008 alloy bulk to refresh worn front bulkheads or to provide a firmer foundation for suspension tuning on your Rustler VXL.

The alloy bulk gives a firmer pivot which can benefit handling consistency in competitive settings, but check rules and allowances for your class before use.
It is good practice to inspect pins, bearings and rod ends during the swap and replace any worn items to ensure reliable alignment and movement.
Yes, because the stiffer pivot can change toe and camber feel; recheck and adjust alignment after installation for best results.
