Overview
Upgrade your Venture 18 CC's suspension with HPI Racing's High Clearance Aluminum Link Set. These machined aluminum links replace the stock plastic suspension links and are finished in a gunmetal anodize that matches the rest of HPI's Venture 18 aluminum option parts.
The set is aimed at drivers who want more durability and more consistent handling from a 1/18 scale crawler. Aluminum links are far more rigid than plastic, so suspension geometry stays where you set it instead of flexing under load on a hard line or a big compression.
Key Features
- Machined aluminum suspension links for the HPI Venture 18 CC
- Gunmetal anodized finish
- High clearance link shape
- Direct replacement for the stock plastic links
- Increased rigidity compared to composite components
Performance Benefits
- Holds suspension geometry under load for more predictable steering and climbing
- Much greater resistance to bending and breakage than plastic links
- High clearance profile helps the links slide over rocks and obstacles
- Adds a little chassis weight down low, which crawlers generally benefit from
Usage Notes
- Installs with the stock link hardware; keep your pivot balls and screws organized during the swap
- Use a small amount of thread lock on metal-to-metal screws
- Re-check link hardware after the first few runs
- Aluminum links transfer more shock load to their mounting points, so inspect mounts periodically
