Overview of cup joint purpose

The Arrowmax AM-MBX-E0228 F/R Cup Joint is supplied as a replacement component for MUGEN MBX chassis. Constructed from spring steel, it acts as front and rear cup joints to join steering and drive linkages, and the following notes describe fitment, installation pointers, and tuning impact in straightforward technical terms.

Fit and function: worn linkage ends can cause steering imprecision and misaligned drivetrain geometry; this cup joint restores intended linkage relationships and supports consistent handling during tune-up sessions.

Installation notes: check mating pins and linkages for wear before fitting, slide the cup into place ensuring correct clearance, and verify free movement across suspension travel and steering travel. Small adjustments to turnbuckle length or linkage angles may be required after fitting to retain factory geometry.

Specifications

Choose this cup joint for straightforward replacement of MBX linkage ends when restoring geometry or fitting harder-wearing spring-steel parts during maintenance.

After installation, move the suspension and steering through full travel and observe the joint for free rotation and no lateral play; any binding indicates incorrect seating or pin wear.
Surface treatments can reduce corrosion and minor wear, but regular inspection and cleaning are the best ways to prolong service life for spring-steel fittings.
This part is designed as a durable replacement for standard link ends and is appropriate for hobby racing where spring-steel durability is preferred; ensure correct setup to avoid secondary issues from worn pins.
The pack contains 2 pcs; for track spares, consider keeping extra pairs or spare pins on hand to minimise downtime during events.
