Overview
The ARRMA Rear Shock Spring (2): 4x4 is an essential replacement suspension component for RC enthusiasts who demand consistent performance and reliability from their 4x4 RC vehicles. These high-quality shock springs are precision-engineered to provide the exact specifications needed for optimal suspension geometry and handling characteristics on your RC car. Whether you're running an ARRMA Granite 4x4 RTR brushed monster truck, a Senton 4x4 RTR brushed short course truck, or any of the compatible models in the ARRMA 4x4 lineup, having spare shock springs on hand ensures you can maintain peak performance during competitive racing, weekend bashing sessions, or casual recreational driving across the UK.
As a critical suspension component, shock springs directly influence how your RC 4x4 handles bumps, jumps, and cornering forces. When stock springs wear out or become damaged through intensive use, performance deteriorates noticeably—the vehicle may feel less responsive, lose predictability in handling, or suffer from bottoming out on rough terrain. By replacing your worn springs with authentic ARRMA Rear Shock Springs, you restore your vehicle to factory specification and maintain the suspension geometry that the engineers at ARRMA carefully calibrated for your specific model. This makes these replacement springs an excellent investment for anyone serious about keeping their RC 4x4 in top condition throughout the season.
These shock springs are manufactured to exacting tolerances using spring steel that has been selected for its durability and consistency. The pair included in this package gives you both rear springs you need for a complete replacement, ensuring balanced performance across the rear axle. For RC model enthusiasts in the UK seeking genuine OEM replacement parts backed by ARRMA's reputation for quality, this is the correct choice for maintaining your 4x4 RC vehicle's suspension performance.
Key Features
- High-Quality Spring Steel Construction — Manufactured from strong and durable spring steel, these shock springs deliver long-lasting performance that resists degradation from repeated compression and extension cycles, ensuring consistent handling characteristics throughout many hours of driving.
- Precision Manufacturing — Each spring is manufactured to exact specifications, guaranteeing fast and easy installation without modification or fitting adjustments, which means you can swap out worn springs and get back on the track quickly without frustration.
- Factory-Specification Performance — These springs match the original specification that ARRMA engineered into your vehicle, maintaining the suspension geometry and handling characteristics your RC 4x4 was designed for, rather than settling for inferior aftermarket alternatives.
- Pair Supply — Two shock springs are included in every package, providing both rear suspension springs needed for a complete replacement, ensuring balanced performance and preventing uneven suspension characteristics that could develop if only one spring is replaced.
- Compatible with Multiple ARRMA Models — These rear shock springs fit a comprehensive range of ARRMA 4x4 vehicles including the Granite 4x4 RTR brushed monster truck (in multiple variants) and the Senton 4x4 RTR brushed short course truck models, making them a versatile spare part for RC enthusiasts with these popular platforms.
Technical Performance
The ARRMA Rear Shock Spring (2): 4x4 represents a carefully engineered suspension component that plays a vital role in your vehicle's handling dynamics and comfort characteristics. With a spring length of 3.15 inches (80mm), these springs are designed to fit perfectly within the shock towers of compatible ARRMA 4x4 models, maintaining proper suspension travel and ride height. The stiffness specification of 3.48 lb/in (0.61 N/mm) represents a carefully chosen balance that ARRMA's engineering team determined optimal for the handling characteristics of 4x4 vehicles in this class. This moderate stiffness provides responsive handling without sacrificing ride comfort over bumpy terrain, making these springs equally suitable for high-speed circuit racing and rough outdoor bashing. The use of high-grade spring steel ensures that the springs maintain their stiffness characteristics consistently throughout their service life, resisting the compression set that can occur with lower-quality materials. For RC model enthusiasts building or maintaining their vehicles to factory specification, these OEM shock springs deliver the engineering integrity and performance reliability that serious RC racing and driving demands.

Frequently Asked Questions
- Which ARRMA RC models do these rear shock springs fit? — These rear shock springs are compatible with multiple ARRMA 4x4 vehicles including the ARRMA 1/10 Granite 4x4 RTR brushed monster truck (models ARA4202XV3, ARA4202V3, and ARA102714), the ARRMA 1/10 Granite Boost 2WD RTR brushed monster truck (models ARA4102V4 and ARA4102SV4), the ARRMA 1/10 Senton 4x4 RTR brushed short course truck (models ARA4203XV3, ARA4203V3, and ARA102715), and the ARRMA 1/10 Senton Boost 2WD RTR brushed short course truck (models ARA4103V4 and ARA4103SV4). Always verify your specific model number before ordering to ensure compatibility.
- How often do RC shock springs need to be replaced? — The frequency of shock spring replacement depends on usage intensity and driving conditions. Springs can weaken or lose their stiffness after extended use, particularly if your RC 4x4 frequently experiences hard impacts, heavy jumps, or consistent high-speed running. If you notice your vehicle sitting lower than usual, handling feeling less responsive, or the suspension bottoming out more easily, it's time to replace your springs. Many serious RC racers and weekend bashers keep spare springs on hand for quick replacement between sessions.
- What is the spring stiffness specification of these ARRMA rear shock springs? — These shock springs feature a stiffness rating of 3.48 lb/in (0.61 N/mm), which represents a moderate spring rate optimised by ARRMA for balanced handling on 4x4 vehicles. This stiffness provides responsive suspension geometry without excessive harshness, making these springs suitable for both circuit racing and outdoor terrain bashing.
- What does the 80mm spring length mean for my RC 4x4? — The 3.15 inch (80mm) length specification ensures that these springs fit perfectly within the shock towers of compatible ARRMA 4x4 models, maintaining the correct suspension geometry and ride height that ARRMA engineered into your vehicle. Using springs with incorrect length specifications can compromise handling and suspension travel.
- Are these springs suitable for beginners? — Yes, these replacement shock springs are suitable for all experience levels. They are OEM (original equipment manufacturer) components that simply bolt into place with no modification required, making them an ideal maintenance part for anyone maintaining their ARRMA 4x4 RC vehicle, whether you're a beginner learning the hobby or an experienced competitor.
- How do I install these rear shock springs? — Installation requires removing the old shock springs from your vehicle's rear shock towers and installing the new springs in their place. The precision manufacturing of these ARRMA springs ensures fast and easy fit without any modification or adjustment needed. Consult your vehicle's manual for specific installation procedures if you're unfamiliar with suspension maintenance.
