Rear lower arm carbon reinforcement plate

This carbon upper plate reinforces the rear lower suspension arm on GT/Xb8 scale cars, intended for RC use only. When paired with a lower carbon stiffener it increases lateral and torsional rigidity of the lower arm assembly, reducing unwanted flex under high load.

By limiting unwanted movement in the lower arm, the upgrade helps the rear maintain contact through turns and gives drivers a more consistent traction window. It is targeted at setups on medium to high-traction circuits where extra stiffness translates to faster corner exits.

Installation follows normal rear suspension service procedures; fit using the arm's existing mounting points and confirm fastener engagement and torque values. Expect to tweak suspension geometry post-install to fine-tune balance.

Specifications

  • Item: Rear lower arm upper plate (2 pcs)
  • Material: Carbon
  • Model Number: 353195
  • Compatibility: GT/Xb8

This plate is a focused upgrade for racers who want to stiffen the lower arm to improve entry and mid-corner behaviour without large-scale chassis changes.

Remark :
Due to limited stock availability, please notice that some XRAY items may have to order from the factory and the ready time is around 4-6 weeks. Customer purchases the item is assumed to accept the waiting time which allows us to order directly from the manufacturer if the item is out of our warehouse.

Is the plate compatible with all GT/Xb8 variants?

The part is designed for standard GT/Xb8 lower arms; check variant-specific mounting differences and test-fit before final assembly.

How will lap times be affected?

On medium to high-grip tracks, improved lower arm rigidity can yield quicker corner speed and more consistent exits, which may lower lap times for well-set cars.

Any special tools required?

No special tools are required beyond standard RC suspension service tools; ensure correct screwdriver bits and torque control for carbon parts.

Will this affect rear traction consistency?

Yes. By reducing flex the rear becomes more predictable under load, improving consistency where traction is already moderate to high.

Can I run this on street-style surfaces?

If the surface provides adequate grip, benefit is likely; on very loose street-like surfaces the extra stiffness could reduce compliance and traction.

Maintenance recommendations?

Regularly inspect for cracks after hard impacts, ensure fasteners are secure and avoid overtightening to prevent stress fractures in the carbon.
