Overview
Stiffen up the rear suspension on your Traxxas Unlimited Desert Racer with the Hot Racing CNC 6061 Aluminum Rear Upper Trailing Arms. CNC-machined from solid 6061 aluminum and finished in a sleek black anodized coating, these direct-replacement upper trailing arms eliminate the flex and durability issues of the stock plastic links — exactly what's needed on a 1/7 desert racer that takes massive suspension loads at high speed.
Each arm runs on precision steel pivot balls for smooth, slop-free articulation, while the all-aluminum construction stands up to the punishment of jumps, whoops, and aggressive desert driving. The result: more consistent suspension geometry, sharper handling, and bulletproof durability run after run.
