Technical Performance
The ARRMA Shock Set represents serious engineering designed to handle the demands of small-scale RC driving. At 58mm in length, these shocks are precisely calibrated for the MOJAVE GROM's compact chassis, providing optimal suspension travel and ride quality. The 800cSt silicone oil specification is a sweet spot in damping fluid viscosity—thick enough to provide controlled damping and prevent harsh bottoming out during jumps and landings, yet fluid enough to respond quickly to terrain changes and maintain responsiveness. The pre-filled nature of these shocks eliminates variables that come with manual oil filling, ensuring consistency between left and right sides of your vehicle. The included preload spacers in three different thicknesses (8mm, 4mm, and 1mm) allow setup customisation without purchasing additional parts, making these shocks versatile across different driving styles and track conditions. Whether you're bashful on rough terrain, racing on smooth tracks, or experimenting with suspension tuning, these shocks provide the adjustability and reliability you need. The complete hardware package ensures nothing is missing, and the construction quality reflects ARRMA's reputation for durability in the competitive RC market.

Frequently Asked Questions
- Are these shocks compatible with my ARRMA MOJAVE GROM? — Yes, these shocks are specifically designed and manufactured by ARRMA as original equipment parts for the 1/16 scale MOJAVE GROM. They are fully compatible with both the MEGA 380 Brushed 4x4 variants and fit perfectly without modification.
- Do I need to fill these shocks with oil myself? — No, these shocks arrive pre-filled with professional-grade 800cSt silicone oil. They are ready to install directly onto your vehicle without any preparation or oil filling required, saving you time and ensuring consistent damping right out of the box.
- What do the preload spacers do? — The included preload spacers (8mm, 4mm, and 1mm) allow you to adjust your vehicle's ride height and suspension spring preload. Using different combinations adjusts how much the spring is compressed at rest, which affects both the vehicle's ground clearance and the firmness of the suspension—essential for tuning performance across different surfaces.
- Can I use these shocks as replacements if mine are damaged? — Absolutely. These are genuine ARRMA OEM parts designed as direct replacements for damaged or worn shocks. They maintain the exact same 58mm length and specifications as your original equipment, ensuring no changes to your vehicle's handling or performance characteristics.
- What is the difference between 800cSt oil and other viscosities? — The 800cSt (centistoke) specification refers to the oil's thickness at a standard temperature. Higher viscosity oils (thicker) provide more damping resistance and work well in rough, rocky terrain where you need suspension control. Lower viscosity oils flow more freely and work better on smooth surfaces. The 800cSt specification in these shocks is optimised for the GROM's intended driving conditions.
- Are these suitable for high-speed bashing? — Yes, these shocks are engineered for ARRMA's MOJAVE GROM, which is designed for aggressive off-road driving including jumps, landings, and rough terrain. The 800cSt oil and quality construction provide the control and durability needed for hard bashing.
- Do I need any special tools to install these shocks? — No special tools are required beyond a standard hex key (Allen key) sized to fit the M2.5 screws included in the package. Installation takes just a few minutes once you've removed your old shocks.
