RB7.5 front suspension arm replacement

This Kyosho UBW008 front suspension arm is a carbon composite RC-scale replacement, intended specifically for assemblies labelled RB7.5. It is offered as a direct-change item for front-end suspension arrangements that call out RB7.5 parts, enabling geometry correction or measured tuning without suggesting universal fitment.

Functionally the arm changes both static geometry and transient response. Prior to fitting, confirm hinge-pin centres, the positions of mounting bosses, and any track width variation on your chassis. Minor differences in arm length or hole placement will modify camber and steering behaviour, so treat this as a geometry adjustment component rather than an instant performance upgrade.

Typical installation procedure is: remove wheel and upright where necessary, detach the existing arm at hinge and steering points, transfer any bushings or pins to the new arm if required, then reassemble and confirm unobstructed suspension travel. After installation, verify wheel alignment and wheel bearing seating and perform slow tests across the suspension range to check for binding.

When tuning, use the arm to make small, considered changes to static camber and toe. Inspect the arm at mounting points periodically and verify fastener security after a few runs. Because the component is carbon composite, take care not to over-tighten fasteners at bonded or layered interfaces to prevent local damage.

Remark :
Due to limited stock availability, please notice that some Kyosho items may have to order from the factory and the ready time is around 4-6 weeks. Customer purchases the item is assumed to accept the waiting time which allows us to order directly from the manufacturer if the item is out of our warehouse.
Hinge-pin spacing should match within a few millimetres to ensure correct geometry; measure against your removed arm or the chassis schematic to confirm compatibility with the RB7.5 pattern.
Carbon composite may concentrate wear at mechanical fastening points differently than plastic arms; check mounting bosses and fastener contact areas regularly for signs of abrasion or fatigue.
No special hardware is normally needed if your chassis matches RB7.5 mounting points; reuse existing pins and bushings where compatible and ensure correct fastener torque without overclamping the composite material.
