Technical Performance
The Team Associated Turnbuckles 3.5 x 42mm Steel represent the kind of precision engineering that has made Team Associated a respected name in the RC hobby for decades. Constructed entirely from steel, these components offer exceptional strength-to-weight ratio and durability that far exceeds plastic alternatives, making them the preferred choice for serious RC car builders and racers throughout the UK. The steel construction resists bending under the extreme forces experienced during aggressive cornering, jumping, and high-speed running, while the precise 3.5mm diameter barrel and 42mm overall length provide the exact dimensions required for optimal fitment on compatible Team Associated models. These turnbuckles function as adjustable link components that allow fine-tuning of suspension geometry, with the ability to lengthen or shorten linkage lengths to dial in camber angles, steering geometry, and anti-squat characteristics. The threaded design enables smooth, consistent adjustment without binding or slipping, giving you the control you need to optimise your RC car's handling for different track conditions, weather, or driving styles. Whether you're setting up a fresh build, performing routine maintenance, or replacing damaged components after an accident, these genuine OEM turnbuckles deliver the reliability and precision that competitive RC racing demands.

Frequently Asked Questions
- What RC models use these 3.5 x 42mm turnbuckles? — These genuine Team Associated turnbuckles are designed for use on various Team Associated RC buggies and cars that require this specific 3.5 x 42mm linkage component size. Always refer to your specific kit manual to confirm the exact dimensions and quantities of turnbuckles required for your particular model, as different Team Associated vehicles may use different sizes and quantities of these components.
- Why should I buy genuine Team Associated turnbuckles instead of cheap aftermarket alternatives? — Genuine Team Associated parts are engineered to exact specifications by the manufacturer and undergo quality control testing to ensure reliability and durability. Cheap aftermarket turnbuckles may have inconsistent dimensions, weaker steel, or poor threading that can slip during adjustment, affecting your vehicle's handling and potentially causing failures during racing or bashing. Genuine parts also ensure perfect compatibility and the peace of mind that comes with knowing you have the exact component your RC model was designed to use.
- How do turnbuckles work and why do I need them? — Turnbuckles are adjustable link components used on RC car suspension and steering systems. They feature a central threaded barrel with left and right-hand threads that allow you to shorten or lengthen the link by rotating the barrel. This adjustment capability lets you fine-tune suspension geometry, camber angles, and steering characteristics to optimise your vehicle's handling for different track conditions and driving styles, making them essential for both racing and performance tuning.
- How many turnbuckles do I need? — The number of turnbuckles required depends on your specific Team Associated model and which linkages you're replacing or adjusting. Most RC buggies use multiple turnbuckles across camber links, anti-roll bar links, and steering components. Always consult your kit manual to determine the exact quantity and sizes needed for your particular vehicle before ordering.
- Can these turnbuckles be used for repairs and maintenance? — Yes, these turnbuckles are ideal for routine maintenance and repairs. If a turnbuckle becomes bent, damaged, or worn during use, replacing it with a genuine Team Associated part ensures your vehicle returns to factory specifications and maintains optimal handling and reliability. Having spare turnbuckles on hand allows you to quickly service your RC car and get back to driving.
- Are these turnbuckles suitable for both racing and casual bashing? — Absolutely. Whether you're competing in organised RC racing events throughout the UK or enjoying casual weekend bashing, these genuine steel turnbuckles provide the durability and reliability needed for both applications. Their steel construction makes them strong enough for racing while remaining affordable enough to keep as spares for maintenance and repairs.
