TRAXXAS Rustler VXL Front Damper Mount Alloy RUS028 by GPM  [RUS028]

Front damper bracket compatible with Rustler VXL

This alloy front damper mount is a fitment-grade aftermarket part intended for the TRAXXAS 1/10 Rustler VXL. It replaces the standard plastic mount and is aimed at hobbyists wanting a tougher mounting point and finer suspension control without changing suspension geometry.

Delivered as a single set, the component uses a corrosion-resistant alloy to increase stiffness compared with many stock plastic parts. A firmer mount changes how forces travel into the shocks and linkages, producing measurable differences in steering feel and how the front end soaks bumps.

Fitting is best handled by an experienced modeller: the mount attaches at the Rustler VXL front shock area and replaces the OEM damper mount. When installing, ensure the shock shafts are aligned and the mount sits flush to the chassis to avoid binding. This is a suspension tuning piece rather than a chassis-level redesign.

For track or recreational Rustler VXL use, this alloy front damper mount is practical when you want a firmer mounting point and longer-term durability for front suspension tuning.
