GPM Racing Aluminium Rear Lower Suspension Mount - 7pcs Set for Traxxas 1/10 Ford GT 4-Tec 2.0 (GT009)

Technical overview of the rear lower mount

This aluminium rear lower suspension mount is an aftermarket replacement engineered for the TRAXXAS 4WD GT4 TEC 2.0 platform and supplied by GPM with model code GT009. It addresses hinge pin clearance by combining a 6061 T6 aluminium body with a POM insert to control lateral movement of the lower arm under load and improve repeatability through transitions.

The primary structure uses a high-tensile aluminium alloy to reduce flex at the mounting face, while the POM insert is specified to provide measured compliance and minimise gap at the hinge pin. The part is intended to enhance consistency and longevity of the rear suspension without changing the core suspension geometry.

Installation is a direct replacement for the factory rear lower mount on the stated chassis. Secure the unit using the supplied stainless flat head screws and follow standard service procedures for the rear suspension. After assembly, confirm hinge pin alignment, verify arm free movement, and re-check fastener torque following a short validation run.

The kit supplies the required fasteners sized to the original fixings to enable a straightforward swap. Installation notes: confirm hinge pin clearance in the POM insert, prevent over-tightening of flat head screws, and check for any contact with adjacent suspension components before extended use.

This item is compatible with

• TRAXXAS FORD GT4-TEC 2.0

What parts are delivered in the GT009 kit?

The kit delivers the aluminium rear lower mount components and the stainless steel fasteners needed to replace the factory rear lower mount.

Will GT009 change suspension geometry or ride height?

No. The design intent is to stabilise the lower arm and reduce hinge pin lash; the mounting locations remain unchanged, so geometry and ride height are not intentionally modified.

Recommended assembly checks for longevity?

Verify correct hinge pin seating in the POM insert, avoid excessive torque on the flat head screws, and confirm no interference with adjacent links; re-check fastener torque after initial running. Write Product Review Please sign in your account before you can write any review. Sign In Close
