Overview
Upgrade your Traxxas Sledge 1/8 scale RC monster truck with these premium Traxxas Camber links in eye-catching green anodised finish. Whether you're a competitive racer looking to fine-tune your chassis geometry or a weekend basher wanting to improve handling and stability, these rear camber links are an essential upgrade for any Sledge owner in the UK. The TUBES design represents cutting-edge engineering in RC suspension tuning, combining lightweight construction with exceptional strength to deliver measurable improvements in cornering performance and overall vehicle control.
These 144mm rear camber links are manufactured from high-grade 7075-T6 aluminium alloy, a material that offers superior strength compared to titanium whilst remaining significantly lighter than traditional steel alternatives. This unique combination makes them ideal for RC enthusiasts who demand both durability and precision handling. Available as part of RC Model Shop's comprehensive range of Traxxas suspension upgrades, these camber links represent excellent value for anyone serious about optimising their RC car setup in the UK.
The brilliant green anodised finish not only adds striking visual appeal to your Sledge but also provides additional corrosion protection and durability. Perfect for weekend bashers and competitive drivers alike, these camber links come fully assembled and ready to install, saving you valuable setup time so you can get back out on the track or terrain faster.
Key Features
- TUBES Hollow Tube Design — The innovative hollow tube construction maximises structural rigidity whilst reducing overall weight, allowing your Sledge to respond more quickly to suspension adjustments and maintain consistent handling characteristics throughout your driving session.
- 7075-T6 Aluminium Construction — These camber links are manufactured from premium 7075-T6 aluminium alloy, which is recognised as stronger than titanium, providing exceptional durability without the added weight penalty that steel would introduce to your suspension setup.
- Lighter Than Steel, Stronger Than Titanium — The engineering advantage of aluminium over heavier materials means your Sledge will benefit from reduced unsprung mass, leading to improved suspension response, better traction control, and enhanced overall handling precision on both smooth and rough terrain.
- 144mm Centre-to-Centre Length — Precisely engineered at 144mm (centre to centre) to fit Sledge models perfectly, ensuring correct geometry and optimal suspension performance with no compatibility issues or fitment concerns.
- Green Anodised Finish — The brilliant green anodised coating adds distinctive style to your RC truck while providing additional protection against corrosion and wear, ensuring your camber links maintain their appearance and functionality through extended use.
- Fully Assembled with Rod Ends — These camber links arrive completely assembled with steel hollow ball rod ends already installed, eliminating the need for additional assembly work and allowing immediate installation on your Sledge.
- Machined Groove for Left-Hand Threads — A clearly visible machined groove identifies the left-hand threads, making adjustments intuitive and preventing confusion during suspension tuning, a feature that proves invaluable when making multiple geometry changes.
- Included 8mm Aluminium Wrench — The precision-engineered 8mm aluminium wrench is specifically designed to prevent marring or damage to the turnbuckles during adjustment, protecting your investment and ensuring clean, professional-looking suspension work.
- Steel Hollow Ball Rod Ends — The four pre-assembled rod ends feature steel hollow ball construction, providing durability and smooth articulation whilst maintaining the lightweight characteristics essential to RC performance tuning.
Technical Performance
These Traxxas rear camber links represent the pinnacle of suspension engineering for 1/8 scale RC monsters trucks in the UK market. The 7075-T6 aluminium construction delivers exceptional strength-to-weight ratio that traditional materials simply cannot match. By utilising a hollow tube design rather than solid construction, Traxxas engineers have created a component that maintains structural integrity whilst reducing the overall mass your suspension must control. This engineering innovation directly translates to measurable improvements in handling: quicker response times, more consistent cornering behaviour, and better traction management across varying terrain types. The 144mm length ensures perfect compatibility with Sledge models, maintaining correct suspension geometry for optimal camber angles. The included rod ends with steel hollow balls provide smooth, responsive articulation without play or slop, critical for consistent handling. For anyone running a Sledge 6S or other Sledge variant and serious about chassis tuning, these camber links represent essential suspension components that deliver real performance benefits. The green anodised finish is not merely cosmetic—it indicates proper hardcoat anodising that provides superior corrosion resistance compared to uncoated aluminium, ensuring longevity even in damp UK weather conditions.

Frequently Asked Questions
- Are these camber links compatible with all Sledge models? — These rear camber links are specifically designed for Traxxas Sledge models, including the Sledge Belted 1/8 scale 4WD brushless electric monster trucks. They fit all colour variants including green, red, blue, and orange. Always verify your specific Sledge model designation before ordering if you have any concerns about compatibility.
- What makes 7075-T6 aluminium stronger than titanium? — The 7075-T6 alloy is an aerospace-grade aluminium that achieves exceptional strength through its copper, magnesium, and zinc composition combined with specialized heat treatment. Whilst titanium is renowned for strength, 7075-T6 offers superior strength-to-weight ratio for RC applications, meaning you get more strength without the weight penalty that would affect suspension response and overall vehicle dynamics.
- How do camber links affect my Sledge's handling? — Camber links control the angle of your wheels relative to the vertical plane (camber angle). By adjusting camber, you can fine-tune how your tyres contact the track surface, improving cornering grip, reducing tyre wear, and enhancing overall handling precision. These lighter, stronger camber links allow more responsive suspension behaviour compared to heavier alternatives.
- Why is the hollow tube design better than solid tubes? — The TUBES hollow design maximises rigidity whilst minimising weight through sophisticated engineering. A hollow tube maintains structural strength whilst reducing unsprung mass, allowing your suspension to respond more quickly to terrain changes and control inputs. This directly improves handling responsiveness and traction management on your RC monster truck.
- Do I need to assemble these camber links? — No, these camber links arrive fully assembled with rod ends and hollow ball components already installed. You simply need to install them onto your Sledge using the included 8mm wrench for any turnbuckle adjustments needed during setup.
- What do the machined grooves indicate? — The machined groove identifies which end has left-hand threads, a critical detail when making suspension adjustments. This visual indicator prevents installation errors and ensures you always tighten in the correct direction, avoiding accidental loosening during driving.
- Why is an aluminium wrench included? — The precision 8mm aluminium wrench is softer than steel, preventing marring or damage to the precision-machined turnbuckles during adjustment. This protects your investment in premium suspension components and maintains a professional appearance on your setup.
- How often should I adjust my camber links? — Camber adjustment depends on your driving style and terrain. Competitive racers may adjust between each event, whilst weekend bashers might adjust seasonally or when changing terrains. The smooth rod ends on these camber links allow easy, repeatable adjustments.
- Are these genuine Traxxas parts? — Yes, these are authentic Traxxas TRX9548G camber links, manufactured by Traxxas to OEM specifications and sold through authorised retailers like RC Model Shop, ensuring you receive genuine components with full compatibility and reliability.
