Overview
The ARRMA Aluminium Shock Body 15x63mm is a genuine replacement suspension component designed specifically for ARRMA 1/8 scale RC desert trucks and off-road vehicles. This pair of high-quality aluminium shock bodies represents the perfect upgrade or maintenance solution for RC enthusiasts running ARRMA models, whether you're a weekend basher, competitive racer, or experienced RC driver in the UK. Built to ARRMA's exacting engineering standards, these shock bodies are engineered to deliver reliable performance and durability through demanding terrain and challenging driving conditions.
If you own an ARRMA 1/8 MOJAVE 4X4 4S BLX desert truck or similar ARRMA platform, having quality replacement shock bodies in your spares box is essential for maintaining peak suspension performance. Over time, aluminium shock bodies can suffer from wear, damage or corrosion through normal use, particularly if you're running your RC car in dusty, muddy or coastal environments. The ARRMA Aluminium Shock Body 15x63mm (2) Z-ARA330797 provides the perfect solution, offering genuine OEM quality parts that restore your suspension geometry and damping characteristics to factory specification.
These shock bodies are essential spares for any serious ARRMA owner, whether you're maintaining your current RTR ready to run RC truck or upgrading your suspension setup. The 15x63mm dimensions are precisely engineered to work with ARRMA's shock absorber systems, ensuring compatibility and reliable fit with no modifications required. Order your replacement shock bodies from RC Model Shop today and keep your ARRMA RC truck running smoothly.

Technical Performance
The ARRMA Aluminium Shock Body 15x63mm (2) Z-ARA330797 represents precision engineering at its finest, crafted from quality aluminium alloy that balances strength with minimal weight addition to your suspension assembly. These shock bodies are specifically engineered for ARRMA 1/8 scale RC vehicles, including the popular MOJAVE 4X4 4S BLX desert truck platform, which combines brushless motor technology with four-wheel drive capability for serious off-road performance. The 15x63mm dimensions are critical to suspension geometry and shock absorber function, ensuring that your damping characteristics remain true and your vehicle maintains proper ride height and handling balance across jumps, berms and technical terrain. Aluminium construction provides excellent corrosion resistance compared to steel alternatives, particularly important for RC enthusiasts operating their vehicles in varied UK weather conditions, near coastal areas, or in muddy, wet environments where metal components face genuine material stress. The precision machining ensures that these shock bodies maintain concentric dimensions critical for smooth shock piston movement and consistent damping throughout compression and extension cycles. Whether you're replacing worn original equipment or upgrading your suspension system, these genuine ARRMA components maintain the engineering integrity and performance characteristics that make ARRMA vehicles some of the most respected ready to run and high-performance RC trucks available in the UK RC hobby market.

Frequently Asked Questions
- What vehicles are these ARRMA shock bodies compatible with? — These 15x63mm aluminium shock bodies are confirmed compatible with the ARRMA 1/8 MOJAVE 4X4 4S BLX Desert Truck RTR in both white and blue colour options. They may also be compatible with other ARRMA 1/8 scale models using the same shock absorber specifications, so we recommend confirming compatibility with your specific vehicle model before ordering.
- Why would I need replacement shock bodies for my ARRMA RC truck? — Over time, shock bodies can become worn, dented, or damaged through normal use, aggressive driving, impacts with terrain, or corrosion exposure. Damaged shock bodies compromise suspension performance, affect your vehicle's handling characteristics, and can lead to inconsistent damping. Replacement with genuine ARRMA components restores your truck's suspension to factory specifications and ensures optimal performance.
- Are these genuine ARRMA parts? — Yes, these are official ARRMA genuine spare parts with the authentic model number Z-ARA330797. We supply only authorised ARRMA components to ensure you receive products manufactured to the brand's exacting standards and backed by proper warranty coverage.
- Do these shock bodies require any special installation tools? — Installation of shock bodies typically requires basic RC maintenance tools such as a small hex key set and potentially a shock nut wrench, depending on your specific shock assembly design. We recommend consulting your ARRMA vehicle manual for detailed installation instructions specific to your model.
- What makes aluminium shock bodies better than alternatives? — Aluminium offers an excellent balance of strength, weight and corrosion resistance compared to steel shock bodies. The material resists rust and oxidation, particularly beneficial for UK RC operators dealing with damp weather conditions, and the precision machining ensures consistent performance over extended operating periods.
- Can I use these on other RC vehicles? — These shock bodies are specifically engineered for ARRMA 1/8 scale vehicles using 15x63mm shock specifications. Attempting to fit them to non-ARRMA vehicles or different scale models may result in poor fit and compromised suspension performance. Always verify compatibility with your specific vehicle before purchasing.
