Precision alloy rear knuckle for Rustler VXL

The RUS022 is a machined aluminum alloy rear knuckle engineered for the TRAXXAS 1/10 Rustler VXL chassis. Built as an aftermarket replacement, the component locates in the rear steering assembly and aligns with the chassis rear suspension geometry.

Supplied as one pair for left and right rear positions, the machined aluminium construction offers reduced compliance compared to molded parts, improving pivot rigidity and helping maintain alignment under load.

Installation requires checking the knuckle against the OEM item, transferring any existing pins or fasteners, and confirming clearance for axle and driveline components. Conduct a post-install inspection of mounting hardware and bearings after initial operation to confirm correct seating and alignment.

  • TRAXXAS Rustler VXL

Is RUS022 suitable for competitive tuning setups?

RUS022 provides a stiffer, more consistent rear pivot which can benefit tuning to reduce unwanted compliance in the rear end; assessment should be made against the full setup.

What manufacturing process is used?

The knuckle is machined from an aluminium alloy to provide consistent geometry and tighter tolerances compared to molded components.

How does alloy stiffness affect setup?

Increased stiffness at the rear pivot can reduce flex, changing handling balance; tuners should verify shock damping and alignment after fitting.

Are there special installation requirements?

Use correct fasteners from the original assembly, avoid over tightening into aluminium threads, and confirm axial and rotational clearances for driveline parts.

Recommended maintenance for machined parts?

Regularly inspect for play at pivot points, check fastener torque, and replace worn pins or bearings to maintain precise steering geometry.
