Overview
The Losi Shock Assembly Front, Aluminium (2): Mini-T 2.0, Mini-B is a genuine OEM replacement component designed for Losi's popular 1/16 and 1/18 scale RC vehicles. Whether you're a dedicated enthusiast running a ready to run RC buggy or stadium truck, or you're looking to upgrade and maintain your RC car UK collection, this pair of front shock assemblies delivers the reliability and performance you need. These precision-engineered shock units are essential for maintaining your vehicle's suspension geometry and ensuring consistent handling across different terrain and driving conditions.
If you own a Losi 1/16 Mini-B or a 1/18 Mini-T 2.0 stadium truck, you'll appreciate the importance of having quality suspension components. Over time, shocks can wear, leak fluid, or lose their damping characteristics, affecting your RC model's performance. This genuine Losi replacement kit contains two complete front shock assemblies, giving you everything needed to restore your vehicle to factory specifications. With a manufacturer rating of 4.9 out of 5 stars, these shocks come highly recommended by the Losi RC community and represent an excellent investment in maintaining your brushless RC truck or buggy.
Constructed from durable aluminium, these shock assemblies are built to withstand the demands of regular RC operation, whether you're bashing casually in your garden or pushing harder at the track. The aluminium construction provides strength whilst keeping weight to a minimum, contributing to optimal vehicle dynamics and responsiveness during driving sessions.
Key Features
- Aluminium Construction — The shock bodies are manufactured from aluminium, which offers an excellent balance between strength and lightweight performance, ensuring your Mini-T 2.0 or Mini-B maintains proper suspension response without adding unnecessary weight to the chassis.
- Genuine OEM Component — As an official Losi part, this assembly meets all factory specifications and quality standards, guaranteeing compatibility and reliability when installed on your RC vehicle.
- Pair of Two Assemblies — This package includes both front shock units required to replace your vehicle's front suspension, allowing you to upgrade both sides simultaneously for balanced handling characteristics.
- Direct Fit Design — These shocks are engineered to fit perfectly on Mini-T 2.0 and Mini-B models, requiring no modification or adaptation during installation.
- Suspension System Component — Proper shock assemblies are critical for maintaining correct suspension travel, damping, and vehicle geometry, directly affecting traction, stability, and overall driving performance.
Technical Performance
The Losi Shock Assembly Front represents precision engineering designed specifically for 1/16 and 1/18 scale RC vehicles. These shocks play a crucial role in your vehicle's suspension system, managing vertical movement and absorbing impacts from uneven terrain whilst maintaining contact between the tyres and the ground. The aluminium construction provides structural rigidity necessary to withstand repeated impacts during aggressive driving sessions, whilst the engineering allows controlled damping of suspension movement. Whether you're operating a brushless RC buggy with high-performance acceleration or a stadium truck designed for jumps and rough terrain, these shock assemblies are engineered to work in harmony with your vehicle's suspension geometry. The factory specifications ensure that the shocks maintain proper ride height, compression and rebound damping, and overall vehicle balance. For RC enthusiasts in the UK who demand reliability and genuine components, these Losi shocks deliver the quality and durability expected from the manufacturer.

Frequently Asked Questions
- Which RC models are these shocks compatible with? — These front shock assemblies are specifically designed for the Losi 1/16 Mini-B Brushed RTR and Brushless RTR variants, as well as the Losi 1/18 Mini-T 2.0 V2 2WD Stadium Truck in both Brushless RTR configurations. They will fit the Mini-B models in blue and red variants, as well as the Mini-T 2.0 V2 in red and blue options.
- Why should I replace my shock assemblies? — Over extended use, shock absorbers can develop internal leaks, lose damping fluid, or experience seal degradation, all of which reduce suspension performance and responsiveness. Replacing worn shocks with genuine Losi assemblies restores your vehicle's factory suspension characteristics, improving handling, traction, and driving stability across different track conditions and terrain.
- Are these genuine Losi parts? — Yes, these are official Losi OEM components manufactured to factory specifications. The part number LOS314004 is the genuine Losi designation, and purchasing from authorised retailers ensures you receive authentic parts rather than inferior aftermarket alternatives.
- How difficult is installation? — Installation of shock assemblies typically requires basic RC maintenance knowledge and appropriate tools. If you're unfamiliar with RC vehicle maintenance, our team at RC Model Shop can provide guidance or support to ensure proper installation. Correct installation is important for optimal suspension performance.
- What is the difference between these and other brands' shocks? — These are purpose-built for Losi Mini-T 2.0 and Mini-B vehicles, meaning the geometry, mounting points, and damping characteristics are optimised specifically for these models. Using genuine Losi parts ensures compatibility and prevents performance inconsistencies that can result from using universal or incompatible shock assemblies.
