About the Caster Blocks

Suspension Geometry

RC suspension geometry determines the alignment of suspension components, directly affecting handling, stability, and performance. Key factors include caster angle for high-speed stability, camber angle for cornering grip, toe angle for steering response, and center of gravity (CG) for weight transfer and body roll. Proper shock absorption and travel ensure consistent tire contact and impact control. Maintaining precise suspension geometry, especially with durable components like aluminum caster blocks (C-hubs), enhances control, durability, and overall driving performance.

Features:

• Factory style to maintain proper steering and suspension geometry
• High-strength 6061-T6 aluminum
• Aluminum for improved strength
• Anodized corrosion resistant finish
