Overview
Replace the flexy stock plastic front lower arms on your Traxxas Unlimited Desert Racer with the Hot Racing CNC 6061-T6 Aluminum Front Lower Suspension Arms. CNC-machined from solid 6061-T6 aluminum and finished in a clean black anodized coating with secondary-machined beveled edges, these direct-replacement arms feature a slim profile gull-wing design that maintains the stock shock mounting position — meaning no other changes are required during installation.
The patent-pending suspension arm ball joint capture design is a major step forward in front-end durability, eliminating one of the most common failure points on stock UDR plastic arms. EZ multi-shock mount positioning lets you fine-tune ride height with a single screw, and the all-aluminum construction stands up to the punishment of high-speed desert driving.

Usage Notes
Apply removable thread-locker on screws threading into metal during installation. Verify front suspension geometry and toe settings after installation. Choose your shock mount position based on driving style — higher position for more travel, lower position for stiffer feel. Inspect periodically and re-torque fasteners as needed.
