Overview
The PRO 1/10 Pro-Spec Front/Rear (105mm-110mm) Scaler Shocks represent the next generation of RC shock technology from Pro-Line Racing, a brand recognised worldwide for engineering excellence in the RC hobby. These premium suspension components are designed specifically for 1/10 scale crawler and scaler vehicles, making them an essential upgrade for anyone serious about building a super scale rig. Whether you're a seasoned competitor looking to enhance your vehicle's performance or an experienced RC enthusiast wanting to upgrade your crawler setup, these Pro-Spec Scaler Shocks deliver professional-grade suspension technology that will transform how your RC car handles challenging terrain.
Pro-Line has engineered these shocks with meticulous attention to detail, combining cutting-edge materials with precision manufacturing to create suspension components that perform as impressively as they look. The shocks feature bright Chrome and Blue anodising that makes them visually stunning on any crawler, whilst the engineering inside is equally impressive. These are not generic suspension components — they are purpose-built for the specific demands of 1/10 scale crawlers and scalers, where precise suspension tuning can mean the difference between conquering obstacles and getting stuck. The shocks come mostly pre-built, requiring only the addition of your choice of shock oil, which means you can have them installed and ready to perform in minimal time.
If you're searching for high-quality RC car suspension upgrades in the UK or looking to improve your crawler's capabilities, these Pro-Spec shocks are an investment in reliability and performance. They're the kind of component that separates casual RC enthusiasts from serious builders who understand that premium suspension is the foundation of any capable off-road RC vehicle.
Key Features
- CNC Machined Aluminium Components — The shock caps, collars, bodies and bottom caps are all computer numerically controlled and machined from high-quality aluminium, ensuring perfect tolerances and durability that mass-produced shocks simply cannot match. This precision manufacturing means each shock performs consistently and reliably.
- Hard Chrome Coated Steel Shock Shafts — The shock shafts feature a protective hard chrome coating that resists corrosion, wear and damage from regular use, extending the lifespan of your suspension components whilst maintaining smooth operation even in harsh conditions.
- X-Ring Seal Technology — Unlike standard rubber seals, the X-Ring seals provide smooth, low friction action whilst effectively preventing oil leaks from the shock body. This innovative sealing solution means your shocks will maintain consistent damping characteristics over longer periods between service intervals.
- Variable Length Design with Extended Options — These shocks measure 105mm at full extension and collapse to approximately 72mm, providing excellent suspension travel for technical terrain. The included extra 5mm longer shock ends allow you to increase the overall shock length for enhanced scaling appearance and adjusted geometry on your crawler rig.
- Bright Chrome and Blue Anodising — Beyond aesthetics, this premium finishing protects the aluminium components from oxidation whilst making your suspension components stand out visually, giving your RC crawler that pro-built appearance that serious scalers appreciate.
- Dual Rate Springs Included — The shocks come equipped with scale-looking and scale-performing dual rate springs that provide progressive damping characteristics, allowing your vehicle to handle both small bumps smoothly and large impacts effectively without bottoming out.
- Mostly Pre-Built for Convenience — Unlike traditional shock kits requiring extensive assembly, these Pro-Spec shocks arrive mostly assembled and only need shock oil added before installation, saving you significant build time whilst ensuring factory-correct assembly.
- Universal Crawler Compatibility — These shocks are engineered to fit many popular 1/10 scale crawler vehicles currently available in the UK RC market, making them a versatile upgrade option for builders with various platforms.
Technical Performance
The Pro-Spec Scaler Shocks represent a significant engineering achievement in 1/10 scale RC suspension technology. Every component has been designed with the specific requirements of crawler and scaler vehicles in mind, where precision suspension tuning directly impacts a vehicle's ability to navigate obstacles, maintain traction and control weight distribution. The CNC machined aluminium construction ensures that tolerances remain within exacting specifications, which translates to consistent performance across the entire shock length. The hard chrome coated steel shafts provide superior corrosion resistance compared to bare steel, meaning these shocks will maintain their performance characteristics whether you're bashing in wet British weather or tackling dry rocky terrain. The X-Ring seal technology is particularly important because it combines the low-friction properties needed for smooth suspension action with the sealing capability required to keep shock oil where it belongs — inside the shock body. At 105mm extended length and 72mm collapsed, these shocks provide substantial suspension travel appropriate for technical crawler work. The inclusion of 5mm longer shock ends adds valuable versatility, allowing builders to fine-tune their vehicle's geometry and ride height. The dual rate springs included with the shocks provide intelligent damping that compresses easily over small obstacles but stiffens under larger impacts, a characteristic that serious crawler builders specifically seek. Unlike generic shocks, these Pro-Spec units are designed to work with the finest quality shock oils available on the UK RC market, allowing you to precisely tune your suspension characteristics. The pre-built nature of these shocks means they arrive with professional assembly, eliminating the possibility of improper assembly whilst saving builders valuable time.

Frequently Asked Questions
- Are these Pro-Spec Scaler Shocks suitable for my 1/10 scale crawler? — These shocks are specifically engineered for 1/10 scale crawlers and scalers, making them ideal for popular platforms in this category. However, compatibility varies by vehicle model, so we recommend checking with our RC Model Shop team to confirm fitment on your specific chassis before purchasing.
- What shock oil do I need to use with these shocks? — The source documentation confirms these shocks are pre-built and require only the addition of shock oil before installation. You'll need to select an appropriate viscosity shock oil based on your terrain conditions and desired damping characteristics — lighter oils provide faster suspension response whilst heavier oils provide more damping. Our team at RC Model Shop can recommend suitable options based on your specific setup.
- How do the Pro-Spec Scaler Shocks compare to other suspension options available in the UK market? — The Pro-Spec Scaler Shocks stand apart through their CNC machined aluminium construction, hard chrome coated steel shafts, advanced X-Ring seal technology and included 5mm extended shock ends. Most standard shocks use stamped steel bodies and basic rubber seals, whereas these professional-grade components are individually machined to exacting tolerances. The included dual rate springs and extended shock ends also provide capabilities not typically found in budget suspension options.
- Can I adjust the suspension characteristics of these shocks? — Yes, you can tune these shocks significantly through your choice of shock oil viscosity. Additionally, the dual rate spring design provides inherent tuning characteristics that adapt to different impact levels. The included 5mm extended shock ends also allow you to adjust your vehicle's ride height and geometry, which affects suspension behaviour.
- Do these shocks require any special maintenance? — Like all quality RC shocks, the Pro-Spec Scaler Shocks will benefit from periodic inspection and oil refreshing based on your usage frequency. The X-Ring seals are designed to prevent leaks and maintain consistent oil levels, but after extensive use, you may eventually need to refresh the shock oil. The hard chrome coated shafts are designed to resist corrosion and wear, making maintenance straightforward.
- What makes the X-Ring seal technology superior to standard rubber seals? — X-Ring seals provide a superior seal geometry compared to traditional O-ring designs, offering both lower friction and better leak prevention. This means your shocks will operate more smoothly whilst maintaining their damping characteristics longer before oil loss occurs, ultimately providing better value and more consistent performance.
- Is this a complete suspension upgrade or do I need additional components? — This is a shock upgrade kit containing two shocks (front and rear pair), shock ends and pivot balls. Depending on your existing setup, you may or may not need additional suspension components, but these shocks themselves represent a complete suspension pair suitable for upgrading your crawler's damping and response characteristics.
