Technical Performance
The ARRMA Shock Set 11mm Bore, 116mm Length, 500cSt Oil represents precision engineering in suspension components for 1/10 scale RC vehicles. The 11mm bore diameter works in conjunction with the 500cSt oil viscosity to create a damping profile that balances responsiveness with stability, critical for maintaining control during aggressive driving through rough terrain. The 116mm length is no arbitrary measurement—it's been carefully calculated by ARRMA's engineers to maintain the precise suspension geometry, ride height, and anti-squat angles that define the handling characteristics of the GORGON MT and QUAKE 223S platforms. This attention to specification ensures that when you replace worn shocks with this genuine OEM component, you're restoring your RC vehicle to factory performance standards. The quality of construction and material selection reflects ARRMA's reputation for building RC vehicles and components that withstand demanding use, whether that's high-speed bashing, competitive racing, or technical driving across challenging courses. For RC enthusiasts across the UK who understand that suspension performance is fundamental to vehicle control and longevity, this shock set delivers the reliability and performance that experienced users expect from OEM replacement parts.

Frequently Asked Questions
- Which ARRMA models use the 11mm bore 116mm length shock set? — This shock set is specifically designed for compatibility with multiple ARRMA 2WD monster truck variants including the GORGON MT RTR models (Blue, Red, Yellow variants), GORGON MT RTA Kit, GORGON MEGA 550 models (Purple, Gun Metal, and Blue variants), and the QUAKE 223S DSC brushless monster truck in Red, Green, and Purple colour options.
- What does 500cSt oil viscosity mean for performance? — The 500 centistoke (cSt) measurement indicates the thickness of the damping oil inside the shock. This specific viscosity provides a moderate damping rate that offers smooth suspension response while still providing enough resistance to keep the vehicle under control during aggressive driving, jumping, and cornering. Higher viscosity oils provide firmer damping, whilst lower viscosity oils offer softer, more compliant suspension action.
- Can I use a different oil viscosity in these shocks? — Whilst technically other ARRMA shock oils could be installed, the 500cSt specification has been chosen by ARRMA engineers for optimal performance with your specific vehicle model. Different oil viscosities will alter your vehicle's handling characteristics, suspension response, and ride height. For best results, we recommend using the specified 500cSt oil.
- Are these genuine ARRMA parts? — Yes, these are official OEM ARRMA components manufactured to the exact specifications used in ARRMA's factory-built vehicles. The model number Z-ARA330756 and EAN code 5052127041782 confirm authenticity as genuine ARRMA replacement parts.
- How often should I replace my RC shocks? — Shock replacement intervals depend on your usage intensity and maintenance practices. Signs that shocks need replacement include loss of damping response, visible damage to the shock body, oil leakage, or noticeable changes in your vehicle's handling and ride height. Regular inspection of shocks during routine maintenance is recommended for all RC vehicles.
- What is the difference between the 500cSt shocks and other viscosity options? — ARRMA offers shock sets in various oil viscosities (100cSt, 500cSt, 700cSt, 1000cSt, and 2000cSt) to allow tuning of suspension response. The 500cSt option provides a moderate damping profile suitable for general-purpose bashing and driving, whilst lower viscosities offer softer suspension and higher viscosities provide firmer damping for specific track conditions or driving styles.
