- Precision manufactured threads — The threaded sections are engineered with exacting tolerances, allowing for fast and easy assembly during maintenance or repair work, and providing reliable servicing so you can confidently adjust your suspension setup without worry.
- Direct replacement compatibility — As genuine ARRMA parts, these shock shafts are engineered to perfectly match your original kit components, ensuring your suspension geometry, ride height, and handling characteristics remain consistent with your vehicle's design specifications.
- Two-pack convenience — This pack includes two shock shafts, providing spare components for both the front and rear of your vehicle, or extras for maintenance and replacement, minimising downtime and keeping you ready to drive.
- Long-lasting durability — The robust steel construction resists corrosion and wear, maintaining performance throughout extended use and multiple driving seasons, making these shafts a smart investment for any RC enthusiast.
Technical Performance
The ARRMA Shock Shaft 2.5x75mm is engineered with meticulous attention to detail, using super-tough steel throughout its construction to deliver reliability that matches the performance standards ARRMA is known for across the RC industry. The 2.5mm diameter provides the correct thickness for vehicles specified with this shaft size, whilst the 75mm length ensures proper suspension geometry and ride height. The precision-manufactured threads are a critical feature, allowing you to install and remove these shafts repeatedly without stripping or cross-threading, which is essential for anyone who services their RC vehicle regularly or makes suspension adjustments. The engineering ensures that the shaft maintains consistent tolerances, so your suspension performs predictably lap after lap, whether you're running on track, carpet, grass, or dirt. As a genuine ARRMA component, this shaft integrates seamlessly with ARRMA shock bodies and related suspension hardware, delivering the performance envelope that ARRMA vehicles are engineered to achieve. These shafts are manufactured to survive the rigours of RC driving, from high-speed track runs to aggressive off-road bashings, maintaining their integrity and performance characteristics throughout their service life.

Frequently Asked Questions
- What is a shock shaft and why would I need a replacement? — The shock shaft is the metal rod that forms the core of your shock absorber assembly. It moves in and out during suspension compression and extension, and over time, constant impacts and stress can cause wear, bending, or damage. Having spare shafts allows you to maintain your vehicle's suspension performance and minimise downtime during repairs or maintenance.
- How do I know if my shock shafts need replacing? — Signs of worn or damaged shock shafts include uneven ride height, inconsistent suspension feel, visible bending or scoring on the shaft surface, difficulty removing or installing the shaft, or leaking shock fluid around the shaft area. If you notice any of these issues, replacement shafts will restore your suspension performance.
- Will these shafts work with my ARRMA vehicle? — These are genuine ARRMA parts designed to fit ARRMA vehicles specified for 2.5x75mm shock shafts. Check your vehicle's manual or parts list to confirm the correct shock shaft size for your model before ordering, as different ARRMA vehicles use different shaft diameters and lengths.
- What tools do I need to replace shock shafts? — Replacement is straightforward and typically requires only basic hand tools, including hex keys, screwdrivers, and possibly a shock tool for your specific shock type. You may also want to have fresh shock oil on hand if you're servicing the shock bodies during shaft replacement.
- Why should I buy genuine ARRMA parts instead of aftermarket alternatives? — Genuine ARRMA parts are engineered and tested to the same standards as your original components, ensuring perfect fitment, compatibility, and performance. Using genuine parts maintains your vehicle's handling characteristics and suspension geometry, while aftermarket parts of varying quality can introduce inconsistencies or fitment issues that affect performance.
- How many shock shafts should I keep as spares? — A two-pack like this one is ideal because it covers both the front and rear of your vehicle, or provides a spare set. Many serious RC enthusiasts keep multiple packs on hand so they always have replacements available without waiting for delivery.
