Overview
The ARRMA Shock Standoff (4) Z-ARA330703 is an essential replacement and upgrade component for RC enthusiasts running ARRMA vehicles across the UK. These precision-engineered shock standoffs are designed to reinforce and support the upper shock mounting points on your RC car, delivering the durability and reliability that competitive bashers and weekend warriors demand. Whether you're upgrading from worn factory parts or building a fresh setup, these EXtreme Bash (EXB) specification standoffs provide heavy-duty performance that resists the demanding stresses placed on shock towers during aggressive driving, jumps and high-impact scenarios.
Shock standoffs are a critical chassis component in any RC car, serving as the structural interface between your shock absorbers and the main chassis. When you're running your RC car hard—whether it's a 6S brushless beast like the ARRMA Felony, Infraction, MOJAVE or TALION, or the high-performance TYPHON buggy—your shock towers experience enormous lateral and compressive forces. Worn or inadequate standoffs can lead to chassis flex, misalignment and premature failure of your suspension system. This four-pack of replacement standoffs from ARRMA addresses that challenge head-on with robust engineering and precision manufacturing that matches OEM standards.
For UK RC car owners seeking to maintain peak performance or upgrade their existing setup, the Z-ARA330703 represents genuine ARRMA quality at an affordable price point. These standoffs are compatible with a wide range of current ARRMA models, making them an ideal spares investment for your RC collection.
Key Features
- Precision Machined Steel Construction — Each standoff is machined from high-quality steel material, delivering superior strength and rigidity compared to weaker plastic alternatives. This manufacturing approach ensures your shock towers remain perfectly aligned and resist the bending stresses that occur under hard cornering, landing impacts and aggressive terrain.
- Engineered to Resist Bending Stresses — The EXB specification design specifically targets upper shock mount applications where lateral forces are greatest. The standoff geometry and material selection work together to prevent flex and bending, which keeps your suspension geometry consistent and your handling predictable lap after lap.
- Accurately Cut M3 Threads — Each standoff features precisely cut M3 threads for secure attachment of your shock hardware. Clean, accurate threads ensure proper fitment and prevent cross-threading, allowing you to assemble and disassemble your shocks quickly and reliably without risk of thread damage.
- Supplied as a Complete Set of Four — This pack contains all four standoffs you need for most ARRMA vehicle configurations, eliminating the need to purchase multiple packs or source parts from different suppliers. Having a complete matched set ensures consistent performance across all four corner shock mounts.
- Includes Flanged M3 Lock Nuts — Every standoff is paired with a flanged lock nut, providing secure fastening with reduced risk of vibration-induced loosening. The flange design distributes clamping force across a larger area, protecting your shock hardware from deformation whilst ensuring long-term assembly integrity.
Technical Performance
The ARRMA Shock Standoff (4) Z-ARA330703 represents genuine OEM-specification engineering designed to meet the demands of modern brushless RC cars running on 6S LiPo power systems. The precision machining process ensures each standoff meets exacting tolerances, with the M3 threads cut to factory standards for reliable installation. The high-quality steel material selection provides the rigidity required to handle the suspension loads generated by vehicles like the 1/7 TALION 6S EXB and the various 1/6 scale 6S BLX models in the ARRMA lineup. These standoffs are engineered specifically for upper shock mount applications where bending stresses are most severe, making them far more capable than basic plastic alternatives found on budget RC cars. The included flanged lock nuts add significant value to the package, providing secure assembly without requiring additional hardware purchases. For UK RC enthusiasts running competitive setups or maintaining their vehicles through regular service cycles, this is the specification-correct replacement part that ensures your shock towers remain perfectly aligned and capable of handling full-throttle bashing sessions.

Frequently Asked Questions
- Which ARRMA RC cars are compatible with the Z-ARA330703 shock standoffs? — These standoffs are compatible with the ARRMA Felony 6S BLX (both Orange and Black versions), ARRMA Infraction 6S BLX (both Silver and Blue versions), ARRMA MOJAVE 6S V2 BLX (Red/Black and Green/Black versions), ARRMA 1/7 TALION 6S EXB 4x4 RTR Speed Truck (Black), ARRMA Typhon 6S V5 BLX, and ARRMA 1/8 TLR Tuned TYPHON 6S 4WD BLX Buggy RTR (Red/Blue). If you own any of these models, these standoffs are a direct replacement for your factory parts.
- Why should I replace my shock standoffs? — Shock standoffs wear, bend and degrade over time with hard use, particularly on 6S brushless RC cars where suspension loads are substantial. Replacing worn standoffs restores precise shock geometry, improves handling consistency and prevents further damage to your chassis and suspension components. For competitive RC car owners and serious bashers, fresh standoffs are a cost-effective way to maintain peak performance and extend the life of expensive components like shock absorbers and chassis plates.
- Are these standoffs suitable for beginners? — Shock standoff replacement is an intermediate-level task that requires basic tools and mechanical understanding. If you're comfortable removing your shocks and refitting hardware, you can replace these standoffs yourself. However, if you're new to RC car maintenance, we recommend having an experienced RC enthusiast or retailer help you with the installation to ensure proper alignment and fitment. The precision-machined design means installation is straightforward once you understand the process.
- What is the difference between the EXB specification and standard standoffs? — EXB (EXtreme Bash) specification parts are engineered specifically for high-stress applications and aggressive driving. The EXB standoffs feature enhanced material selection and geometric design optimised to resist bending and flex compared to basic standoffs. This makes them the ideal choice for competitive racing and serious bashing, particularly on powerful 6S LiPo-powered vehicles where suspension loads are extreme.
- Do I need to purchase anything else to complete the installation? — The standoffs and lock nuts are included in this package, so you have everything needed for installation. You will need basic tools such as hex wrenches or Allen keys to remove and refit your shocks, but no additional hardware or components are required.
