- Two-Pack Quantity — This set includes two complete shock bodies, providing front and rear suspension upgrades or allowing you to replace worn components on both axles of your RC vehicle, ensuring matched performance across your entire suspension geometry.
- Professional Grey Finish — The grey colour scheme offers a sophisticated appearance that matches or complements most Traxxas RC models, whilst the durable finish resists fading and wear during extended outdoor use in British weather conditions.
- Genuine Traxxas Engineering — These shock bodies are manufactured to Traxxas' exacting standards using quality materials and precision engineering, guaranteeing reliability and longevity even under demanding driving conditions typical of UK RC enthusiasts who bash or race regularly.
- Wide Model Compatibility — These shocks are compatible with numerous Traxxas platforms including the Ford Fiesta ST Rally VXL, Ford Fiesta ST Rally BL-2S, Mini Maxx BL-2S models, Rustler 4x4 BL-2S 1/10 stadium trucks, Slash 4X4 BL-2S short course trucks, Slash VXL short course trucks, Slash HD XL-5 short course trucks, Stampede 4X4 HD VXL monster trucks, and many other current Traxxas RC vehicles, making this a versatile upgrade choice.
- Drop-In Replacement Design — These shock bodies are engineered as direct replacements or upgrades for standard Traxxas shocks, featuring compatible mounting points and dimensions that allow straightforward installation without requiring additional modifications to your RC car chassis or suspension arms.
- Performance-Oriented Design — Ultra Shocks represent Traxxas' performance-focused suspension technology, incorporating engineering that reduces harshness during landings, maintains consistent damping throughout the suspension stroke, and delivers predictable handling characteristics essential for both casual drivers and competitive racers across the UK.
Technical Performance
The Traxxas Ultra Shock bodies represent a significant advancement in RC suspension technology. These shock bodies are engineered to work seamlessly with Traxxas' precision-machined shock internals, creating a complete damping system that maintains consistent performance throughout the full range of suspension travel. The long-format design provides extended compression and extension, which is particularly valuable when driving RC 4WD trucks, stadium trucks, short course trucks and monster trucks that encounter varied terrain. The grey-finished aluminium or composite construction ensures durability whilst keeping weight to a minimum, critical for maintaining responsive handling in high-speed RC vehicles. Whether you're running brushless motors delivering high power output or traditional brushed systems, these shocks deliver the stability and control needed to harness that power effectively. The engineering incorporates Traxxas' understanding of suspension geometry, working in harmony with damping oil viscosity selection to provide tunable performance that can be tailored to your specific driving conditions, terrain type, and RC car configuration. Installation is straightforward for anyone familiar with basic RC maintenance, and these shocks integrate perfectly with existing Traxxas chassis platforms without requiring additional upgrades or modifications.

Frequently Asked Questions
- Which Traxxas RC models are compatible with these long-format Ultra Shock bodies? — These TRX3765A shock bodies are compatible with a comprehensive range of Traxxas models including the Ford Fiesta ST Rally VXL (Green), Ford Fiesta ST Rally BL-2S (Red), Mini Maxx BL-2S in multiple colours (Black, Orange, Green, Blue), Rustler 4x4 BL-2S 1/10 4WD stadium truck (Red and Blue), Slash 4X4 BL-2S 1/10 4WD short course truck (Green and Fox variants), Slash VXL 1/10 4x4 short course truck (Orange, Red, Blue, Green), Slash HD XL-5 1/10 2WD short course truck (Green, Red, Blue, Orange), and Stampede 4X4 HD VXL 1/10 4WD monster truck (Green, Blue, Orange). Always verify your specific model number before purchasing to ensure compatibility.
- What is the difference between Ultra Shocks and standard Traxxas shocks? — Traxxas Ultra Shocks are engineered for enhanced performance characteristics, offering superior damping consistency, improved handling response, and greater durability under high-performance driving conditions. The long format provides extended suspension travel compared to standard shocks, allowing your RC car to better manage rough terrain, bigger jumps, and aggressive driving techniques typical of weekend bashers and competitive racers across the UK.
- How do I install these shock bodies on my Traxxas RC car? — These shock bodies are designed as drop-in replacements or upgrades, featuring compatible mounting points that align with existing Traxxas suspension geometry. Installation typically involves removing your current shocks, disconnecting damping components if required, transferring internal shock components to these new bodies, and reinstalling onto your chassis using standard RC tools. Always consult your specific model's instruction manual for precise installation procedures.
- Can I use these shocks if I've upgraded my motor and ESC to brushless? — Yes, absolutely. These Ultra Shock bodies are fully compatible with brushless RC cars. In fact, brushless motors deliver higher performance output, which makes upgrading to performance-focused shocks like these even more beneficial, as they'll help you maintain control and stability when harnessing the increased power and acceleration of a brushless motor setup.
- Are these shock bodies suitable for both on-road and off-road RC driving? — These shock bodies are versatile and can be used in various driving conditions. However, they're particularly well-suited to off-road and mixed-terrain RC driving where suspension travel and damping consistency are critical. The long format provides excellent support for stadium trucks, short course trucks and monster trucks navigating rough British terrain.
- What damping fluid should I use in these shocks? — Traxxas provides damping fluid in various viscosity ratings. The appropriate viscosity depends on your driving style, terrain conditions, and desired suspension feel. Higher viscosity (thicker) fluid provides more resistance and a stiffer ride, whilst lower viscosity delivers a softer, more compliant suspension. Experiment with different grades to find your optimal setup.
