Precision adjustable rear links for ARRMA 1/5

This rear upper toe link kit fits ARRMA 1/5 Kraton and Outcast platforms and is supplied under the part code MAKX057S/V2. The links are manufactured from 4140 carbon steel with an 8 mm wall thickness to give a markedly stiffer replacement versus plastic or light alloy stock items. Adjustment range is 157-162mm center-to-center to cover typical rear geometry settings on 1/5 scale ARRMA 8S cars.

It replaces factory numbers ARA340156+ARA330567+ARA330583 and arrives pre-assembled to minimise time at the bench. Contents include rear upper toe links (2pcs) and plastic rod ends (4pcs). Use a medium-strength threadlocker on metal fasteners to keep secure under high-load use.

On track or at the field these links deliver a stable, adjustable mount for tuning toe and roll center to alter handling balance. Always follow recommended torque figures and check rod ends for play after heavy hits.

For racers and bashers seeking a metal adjustable option to dial rear toe, these 4140 links give a direct-fit aftermarket upgrade for ARRMA 1/5 8S platforms.

Increasing toe-in at the rear can stabilize high-speed tracking, while reducing toe-in or adding toe-out can make the car turn in quicker; small changes at the 157-162mm span can be used to tune understeer and oversteer balance.
Yes, their adjustable range allows incremental changes so you can test toe and roll-center effects; log each change and test lap times or handling feel to decide the best setting.
A stiffer steel link reduces unwanted flex at the link point, making suspension reactions more repeatable; this can improve predictability but may also transmit more shock to mounting points.
After fitting, recheck toe settings, ride height, and shock preloads; minor rebalancing may be needed since the metal links alter rear stiffness compared with plastic originals.
