This lightweight approach helps preserve your RC car's handling characteristics and responsiveness.

The precision tolerances guarantee smooth operation and prevent any play or looseness in your suspension setup.

Technical Performance
The ARRMA Shock Body 16x61mm Aluminium represents the engineering excellence expected from ARRMA RC vehicles. With dimensions of 16x61mm, these shock bodies deliver the right balance of spring compliance and damping characteristics for 6S brushless RC buggies and trucks. The aluminium construction provides superior strength-to-weight ratio compared to plastic alternatives, which is critical for maintaining suspension geometry under the high loads generated by powerful 6S LiPo batteries and brushless motors. The precision-machined adjustment threads allow micro-adjustments to ride height without any slippage or inconsistency, essential for drivers who want repeatability and control. The red anodised finish is not merely cosmetic; the anodisation process hardens the aluminium surface, improving wear resistance against the constant movement and friction experienced during normal operation. Designed specifically for ARRMA's 6S platform, these shock bodies integrate seamlessly with standard 4mm shock shafts, ensuring compatibility with your existing suspension setup. Whether you're running your ARRMA MOJAVE 6S V2 BLX or similar 6S models, these shock bodies maintain the precise damping curves and travel characteristics that ARRMA engineers have tuned for optimal on-track performance.
