Key Features

• Big Bore Shock Cylinder Design — The larger bore diameter increases the internal volume and oil capacity compared to standard shock cylinders, which allows for superior damping performance, better heat dissipation during intense driving, and more consistent suspension response across varying speeds and terrain conditions.
• Long Cylinder Length — This extended length shock cylinder is specifically engineered for applications requiring greater suspension travel and articulation, making it ideal for vehicles designed with longer shock strokes that demand maximum suspension performance and ground clearance.
• Premium Traxxas Manufacturing — Built to the exacting standards that Traxxas is recognised for worldwide, this component is precision-engineered and quality-tested to ensure perfect fitment and reliable performance season after season.
• Direct Replacement Part — As an OEM (Original Equipment Manufacturer) component, this shock cylinder is a genuine Traxxas part that maintains your vehicle's original suspension geometry, handling characteristics, and overall performance specifications.
• Individual Unit — This package contains one shock cylinder, allowing you to replace single damaged or worn shocks or to incrementally upgrade your suspension system one component at a time.
• Proven Performance Heritage — The Traxxas Big Bore shock design has been tested and trusted by competitive racers, enthusiasts, and bashers across the UK and worldwide, delivering consistent, predictable handling in competition and recreational environments.

Technical Performance

The Traxxas Big Bore shock cylinder represents the pinnacle of RC suspension engineering, delivering enhanced performance through carefully optimised bore diameter and internal fluid dynamics. The larger bore increases oil volume within the shock, which provides several critical performance advantages: superior heat management during extended driving sessions, more progressive damping curves that respond smoothly to terrain variations, and reduced cavitation that can occur in standard shock designs under aggressive driving conditions. The long cylinder configuration offers extended suspension travel, allowing your RC vehicle to absorb bigger hits, maintain traction over rough terrain, and deliver the planted, responsive handling that separates average drivers from competitive racers. Whether you're running a Traxxas 4WD monster truck, stadium truck, buggy, or specialised crawler platform, this shock cylinder integrates seamlessly with Traxxas suspension geometry and will restore your vehicle to factory performance specifications. The precision-machined aluminium construction ensures durability whilst maintaining minimal weight, and the internal piston design is optimised for smooth, consistent damping across the entire shock stroke. This is the component serious RC enthusiasts choose when they want to maintain or restore their vehicle's suspension to the absolute highest standard.

Frequently Asked Questions

• What vehicles is the Traxxas Big Bore shock cylinder compatible with? — The TRX2664 is a long shock cylinder designed for specific Traxxas models that utilise longer shock strokes. Check your vehicle's specifications or contact our expert team at RC Model Shop to confirm compatibility with your particular model, as different Traxxas vehicles use varying shock lengths.
• How often should I replace my shock cylinders? — Shock cylinders typically require replacement when you notice reduced damping performance, inconsistent handling, visible damage to the cylinder wall, or oil seepage around the piston rod seal. Aggressive racing or bashing can reduce service life compared to recreational driving. Regular maintenance and inspection will help you identify when replacement is necessary.
• Can I use this shock cylinder on the left or right side of my vehicle? — Shock cylinders are generally symmetrical and can be used on either side (left or right) of your vehicle, though you should verify this with your specific vehicle's manual. Some vehicles may have side-specific designs, so always check compatibility before installation.
• Do I need to buy shocks in pairs? — This package contains a single shock cylinder. For a complete suspension overhaul, you may wish to purchase multiple units to replace all four shocks (front and rear on both sides), though you can also replace shocks individually as needed.
• What makes Traxxas Big Bore shocks different from standard shocks? — The big bore design features a larger internal diameter that increases oil capacity and improves heat dissipation, resulting in more consistent damping performance, better response to terrain variations, and reduced fade during extended driving sessions compared to standard shock cylinders.
• Is professional installation required? — Shock cylinder replacement is within the capability of most experienced RC enthusiasts, though it does require basic mechanical knowledge and proper tools. If you're not confident in your mechanical ability, our team at RC Model Shop can provide guidance or you may wish to seek professional installation.
• Why should I choose genuine Traxxas parts? — Genuine Traxxas components are engineered and tested to work perfectly with your vehicle, maintaining the suspension geometry, handling characteristics, and performance specifications your model was designed for. Aftermarket alternatives may not provide the same fit, durability, or performance reliability that genuine Traxxas parts guarantee.
