Description

RPM front A-arms for the HPI Baja 5B are designed around the stock A-arm geometry, which means they are direct fit replacements - no additional parts or accessories are needed. The list of improvements from there is extensive! To start, they�ve eliminated most of the hard rib angles in favor of smoothly contoured curves that enhance survivability during extreme impacts. Both the upper and lower A-arms incorporate much larger and stronger corner webs than the stock A-arms while RPM lower A-arms have a redesigned center brace that helps the rigidity and strength considerably by spreading impact energies over a much larger area. RPM A-arms will hold their shape better and have less flex than the stock arms as well!

Another problem they encountered with the stock A-arms is the lack of protection for the very low-hanging front shocks. They solved that problem in a couple of ways. First, they elongated the lower shock mount, leaving no part of the shock exposed. Next, they incorporated a unique lower A-arm skid plate that completely covers & protects the lower shock mount. This skid plate adds serious bulletproof RPM protection to the lower end of those extremely expensive shocks while adding strength and support to the whole lower A-arm. Additionally, these skid plates are reversible! Since the A-arm is angled up, only the lowest part of the skid plate (the rear area) will see the most wear. By making the skid plates reversible, the 5B owner can run the skid plates until they wear thin on the one end, swap them from one side to the other and they�re good to go for more punishment!
