Rear upper arms for Hotshot - aluminum upgrade

This set of aluminum rear upper suspension arms fits TAMIYA Hotshot and Super Hotshot 1/10 electric buggies and is listed under model JR-THS05-BK. The parts replace the rear upper arm positions and are finished in black anodized aluminum to reduce flex relative to stock plastic parts.

As a tuning item these arms influence suspension geometry by stiffening the rear linkages, which helps keep toe and camber more predictable when the car is loaded. They are intended to mount in the factory locations, and installation typically involves removing the original plastic arms and refitting existing hinge pins and compatible fasteners.

Remember that these arms alter compliance characteristics rather than replacing damping components; review shock and spring setup after fitting and check clearance around the gearbox and body mounts common to older Hotshot designs.

Specifications

  • Item Aluminum rear upper suspension arms (black)
  • Material Aluminum
  • Model Number JR-THS05-BK
  • Compatibility Tamiya Hotshot, Super Hotshot

Designed as a durable hop-up for classic Hotshot platforms where reduced flex and steady rear geometry matter; check hardware and fitment before final assembly.

Expect reduced rear compliance; start by checking toe and camber under load, then fine tune shock damping and spring rates to match the firmer arm behaviour.
Most installations reuse factory hardware where it fits, but confirm screw length and any spacer needs against your existing uprights before permanent fitting.
Aluminum arms are heavier than plastic but the increase is modest; you may notice a slight change in rear inertia but handling changes will be driven more by stiffness than weight.
Clearances vary by chassis layout and body style; measure and check for any contact points around the gearbox and body mounts prior to final installation.
