Overview
The ARRMA Shock Protector Set (4) Z-ARA320813 is an essential replacement spare part for RC enthusiasts who want to keep their RC cars in peak condition. Whether you're a seasoned basher, competitive racer, or newcomer to the world of RC model cars in the UK, shock protectors are a crucial component that shields the most vulnerable parts of your vehicle's suspension system. This high-quality protective set is designed to replace worn or damaged shock cap protectors on compatible ARRMA models, ensuring your shocks remain safe from impact damage during intense driving sessions.
Shock protectors serve a vital role in extending the lifespan of your RC vehicle's suspension components. When you're driving your RC car UK-style over rough terrain, jumping obstacles, or crashing during competitive races, the shock towers and shock caps are among the first parts to sustain damage. By investing in the ARRMA Shock Protector Set, you're making a smart maintenance choice that will save you money on expensive shock replacement in the long run. This four-piece set provides complete protection for all four shock positions on your ready-to-run RC buggy.
Designed specifically for ARRMA's precision engineering standards, these shock protectors are manufactured with attention to detail and quality control. They fit perfectly with ARRMA's range of 1/14 scale brushed 4x4 buggies, including the popular TYPHON GROM models. If you own an RC model car and want to maintain it properly, having quality spare parts like these shock protectors on hand is essential for keeping your vehicle running smoothly and looking great.
Key Features
- Protection for Shock Caps and Towers — These protectors shield both the shock cap and shock tower of your vehicle from impact damage, preventing cracks and structural failure that could compromise your suspension performance and handling characteristics.
- Tough Composite Material Construction — Made from durable composite material, these protectors offer long-lasting performance and increased crash resistance in all driving conditions, meaning they'll withstand the demands of regular bashing and racing without degrading quickly.
- Enhanced Durability in Extreme Conditions — Whether you're driving in wet weather, muddy terrain, or dry desert conditions, the tough composite construction ensures these protectors maintain their integrity and protective properties, extending the working life of your suspension components.
- Precision Manufactured for Consistent Fit — Each protector is manufactured with precision engineering to ensure they fit your vehicle consistently and securely, with no rattling or movement that could compromise protection or create vibration issues during high-speed driving.
- Four-Piece Complete Set — This set includes four individual shock cap protectors, providing complete coverage for all four shock positions on your RC vehicle, so you can protect your entire suspension system with one purchase.

Technical Performance
The ARRMA Shock Protector Set Z-ARA320813 represents the manufacturer's commitment to quality chassis spares for their range of RC vehicles. Constructed from tough composite material rather than cheaper plastic alternatives, these protectors are engineered to absorb impact energy and distribute stress evenly across the shock tower structure. The precision manufacturing process ensures that each of the four protectors in this set maintains consistent dimensions and fit, eliminating compatibility issues or gaps that could allow debris to reach sensitive suspension components. These protectors are specifically engineered for ARRMA's 1/14 scale TYPHON GROM vehicles, which are brushed 4x4 buggies available in both Blue/Silver and Red/White colour schemes. The composite material used in their construction has been selected for its ability to resist cracking under repeated impacts, making it ideal for the demanding environment of RC bashing and competitive racing. Whether you're driving across rough terrain or recovering from crashes, these shock protectors will maintain their protective qualities and continue to shield your suspension system from damage that could otherwise require expensive repairs or replacements.
