![]() Then, remove the 3 screws holding the rear bumper and set the bumper aside. The rear A-arms are very much like the front. Note: If you are replacing both A-arms then do not reinstall the front bumper and center suspension pin holder until you have installed both A-arms. Now reinstall the front bumper with the 5 screws originally removed. Position the suspension pin holder back in place and faster with the center screw. Reattach the shock to the arm and then fasten the steering knuckle to the arm. Slide the new suspension arm in to place on the chassis and re-install the pin removed earlier. ![]() Installing the front arms is the same as removing just in reverse order. The procedure is the same for both sides. The A-arm is now free to pull off the truck. Once the metal holder is out you can now pull the pin holding the A-arm out, you may need to use a pair of needle nose pliers. Then, remove the screw in the center of the suspension pin holder and pull outward to remove. Now, you need to remove the screw/pin holding the A-arm to the steering knuckle, and the lower shock screw holding the shock to the A-arm. There are 2 through the front and 3 on the bottom side, set that aside with the screws. Next, take the 5 screws out of the front bumper. The first thing to do is, remove the front wheels and set them aside. I am going to start with the front arms because that’s where it broke, so I’m going to change them first. I am using the blue RPM arms for my Rustler.īuy them here! Remove Front Suspension Arms RPM parts are offered in a variety of colors that you can choose from. This will add to the durability of the Rustler. This Upgrade replaces all front and rear suspension arms with new RPM arms. RPM was used for my Traxxas Rustler Upgrade Parts. Broke the A-arm, toe link and the steering linkage. That was it for the day! The Rustler 4×4 was broken. I cut the corner too tight and smacked into a tree with the right front tire with a loud thud. Running my Rustler in about 2″ of snow we had, hitting my jumps and racing around the backyard. ![]() Nitro Sport, Nitro Stampede, and older Traxxas nitro model owners can now easily and affordably upgrade to the same powerful and good looking TRX 3.3 Racing Engine that powers the top-of-the-line Revo®.After my Rustler 4×4 broke, I decided to write an article on how to perform a Traxxas Rustler Suspension Upgrade. The Power-Up Program now allows the exchange of a Traxxas nitro engine (TRX® Pro.15, TRX 2.5, or TRX 2.5R) for the ultimate power of the TRX 2.5R or TRX 3.3 Racing Engines. Ask your hobby dealer for all the details. Available conversion kits make it easy to install the rear exhaust, slide carb equipped TRX Racing Engine in place of the TRX Pro.15. If you are a TRX® Pro.15 owner, you can trade up to TRX 2.5R power or, if you dare, the TRX 3.3 Racing Engine. For less than the price of an average, poorly supported aftermarket engine, you can have extreme TRX 3.3 power with 100% drop-in installation, EZ-Start® electric starting, full Traxxas reliability and support, and power that is absolutely second to none. The TRX 3.3 is 100% “drop-in” compatible with TRX 2.5 and 2.5R equipped models. When you’re ready, you can use the plan to trade up to the TRX 3.3 Racing Engine and watch your speed and acceleration soar. In addition to allowing you to replace your Traxxas engine with the same model to restore original, factory-fresh performance, the Power-Up Program is the extreme-power upgrade path for any model equipped with a TRX® 2.5 or TRX 2.5R Racing Engine. In many cases, installing the new engine only takes minutes and you're back in action. It’s less expensive than rebuilding the engine yourself and you get the peace of mind knowing your engine is brand new (not refurbished), and ready to deliver the power and reliability you expect. The cost is about half the retail price of the new replacement engine. With the Traxxas Lifetime Engine Replacement plan, a worn out or damaged engine can be traded in for a brand-new, factory-fresh TRX® Racing Engine right away by simply exchanging your worn engine at your local hobby store. Rebuilding engines from parts can be costly and time consuming, and can be outside the mechanical skills of many enthusiasts. Engines wear out over time and need to be rebuilt. Our solution is the Lifetime Engine Replacement Plan, which is part of our exclusive Power-Up Program. Years ago we saw a need for our customers to have an easy and affordable way to protect their investment in their Traxxas nitro model and keep the engine performance factory-fresh.
