RPM worlds suspension question ?

Post by Spoon »

I was very fortunate to have a chance to pick up this new built composite craft chassis kit with RPM worlds suspension from my LHS today. My question is did RPM make the worlds suspension arms in black or are these dyed ? Thanks in advance.

Hi spoon,
I was hoping you could help me by taking a measurement of you rear arm length from inner hinge pin to outer?
Thanx for any help

I've only seen them in white. Killer score on that chassis.

I have a set in both black and white. If my black ones are dyed, they are an exact match of RPM black parts.

Thanks so much for the help, the reason I asked about the color is because the owner of the shop didn't recall dying the components black. I've attached a few more pictures for a closer look.

The measurement of the rear arm hinge pin to pin is 2 33/64" on the set I have which I can only assume should be 2 1/2" given a +/- tolerance of 1/64".
