The precision manufacturing ensures that each part fits perfectly and assembles quickly without requiring extensive modification or adjustment. This is the genuine ARRMA part (model number AR330483), manufactured to exact specifications to ensure compatibility and reliability across a wide range of 6S ARRMA platforms including the Kraton, Typhon, Notorious, Outcast, Talion, Infraction, Mojave, Big Rock, Felony, Fireteam and Limitless models.
RC hobbyists across the UK rely on ARRMA as one of the leading manufacturers of ready-to-run brushless RC vehicles, and maintaining those vehicles with genuine, quality replacement parts is crucial for sustained performance and longevity. The Composite Ball Set 6S represents ARRMA's commitment to providing parts that meet the same exacting standards as the vehicles they're designed for.
Key Features
- Durable Composite Material Construction — The ball joints and mounts are manufactured from high-quality composite material that provides excellent durability whilst maintaining lightweight characteristics that don't compromise performance. This material is specifically chosen to offer increased impact resistance, which means your suspension can withstand the punishment of aggressive driving, jumps, and high-speed impacts without cracking or breaking, ultimately saving you money on repair costs.
- Increased Impact Resistance — The composite formula used in this ball set has been engineered to absorb and distribute impact forces more effectively than standard materials, protecting both the ball joints themselves and the adjacent suspension components from damage during hard landings, collisions, and the inevitable bumps that come with RC car ownership and use.
- Precision Manufacturing for Fast Assembly — Every component in this set is precision-manufactured to exact ARRMA specifications, which means there are no gaps, misalignments, or fitment issues when you assemble or install them. This saves you valuable setup time and eliminates the frustration of having parts that don't quite fit properly, allowing you to get back to driving your RC car quickly without requiring additional modification work.
- Complete Suspension System Coverage — This single set includes all the essential ball joint and mounting components you'll need to fully refresh your suspension system, providing 4 roll bar mounting points (both upper and lower), 4 shock ball joints (both upper and lower), and spring spacers to complete a comprehensive suspension overhaul.
- OEM ARRMA Genuine Part — This is the authentic, original equipment manufacturer part supplied by ARRMA through authorised distributors, ensuring that you're getting components manufactured to the exact same standards and specifications as those in your original vehicle, guaranteeing compatibility and performance reliability.
Technical Performance
The ARRMA Composite Ball Set 6S is engineered specifically for the demands of 6S LiPo-powered RC vehicles, which operate with considerably higher power outputs and more aggressive driving dynamics than smaller-scale or lower-powered RC cars. The composite material chosen for this suspension component set provides the ideal balance between strength and weight, crucial for vehicles that are regularly subjected to high-speed cornering forces, substantial jumps from elevated terrain, and the continuous stress of 4WD traction systems. The precision manufacturing process ensures that each ball joint seat, roll bar mount, and spring spacer is produced to consistent tolerances, eliminating variations that could affect suspension geometry or cause noise and play in the suspension system. The material composition has been specifically optimised to resist the creep and degradation that can occur over extended use, meaning these components will maintain their performance characteristics through hundreds of driving sessions. The 6mm spring spacers included in this set are precisely dimensioned to maintain proper suspension ride height and spring preload, which is essential for maintaining the vehicle's handling characteristics and ground clearance. For RC enthusiasts in the UK running high-performance 1/8 scale and 1/7 scale ARRMA models, this component set represents genuine OEM replacement quality that will restore your vehicle's suspension to factory specifications.

Frequently Asked Questions
- What is the ARRMA Composite Ball Set 6S used for? — This component set provides replacement parts for the suspension ball joints and mounts on ARRMA 6S scale RC vehicles. The ball joints connect the suspension arms to the chassis and shock towers, whilst the roll bar mounts secure the protective roll bar structure. Over time, these parts can wear out or become damaged from aggressive driving, impacts, or high-speed runs, and this set allows you to replace them with genuine ARRMA components to restore your vehicle's suspension geometry and performance.
- Which ARRMA models is this compatible with? — The Composite Ball Set 6S is compatible with all ARRMA 6S brushless RC models, including both 1/7 scale trucks (Big Rock, Felony, Fireteam, Infraction, Limitless, and Mojave) and 1/8 scale vehicles (Kraton, Notorious, Outcast, Talion, and Typhon). The set is designed as a drop-in replacement for the suspension components supplied with these vehicles, making it an ideal maintenance part for any 6S ARRMA owner.
- Why should I choose composite material suspension components? — Composite materials in suspension systems offer excellent impact resistance and durability whilst keeping weight down compared to metal alternatives. This is particularly important for high-performance RC cars running 6S LiPo batteries, where aggressive driving is the norm. The composite material used in this ARRMA set is specifically engineered to absorb impacts from jumps and collisions without cracking or breaking, making it more reliable than softer plastics and more affordable than full aluminium alternatives.
- How often will I need to replace these parts? — The frequency of replacement depends entirely on how aggressively you drive your RC car and the conditions you use it in. Casual recreational drivers might get many months or even years of use from these components, whilst competitive racers or extreme bashers who regularly jump large obstacles and drive at high speeds might need replacements more frequently. The increased impact resistance of the composite material in this set means you'll likely get longer service life compared to original kit components.
- Is this a genuine ARRMA part? — Yes, this is an official ARRMA part (model number AR330483) manufactured by ARRMA and distributed through authorised retailers like RC Model Shop. You can be confident that you're purchasing genuine components that meet ARRMA's exact specifications and quality standards, ensuring perfect fitment and reliable performance on your 6S vehicle.
- How difficult is installation? — Installation of these components is straightforward for anyone with basic RC car maintenance experience. The precision manufacturing means the parts fit perfectly into the designated mounting points on your vehicle's suspension without requiring extensive modification. Most RC enthusiasts find that replacing suspension ball joints and mounts takes approximately 30-45 minutes per corner, depending on their familiarity with their specific vehicle's design.
