Overview
The Axial Shock Set, 25mm, Pre-assembled is an essential replacement and upgrade suspension component designed specifically for the Axial SCX30 rock crawler range. Whether you're maintaining your existing SCX30, upgrading worn suspension components, or building a high-performance setup, this pre-assembled shock set delivers the reliability and performance that serious RC enthusiasts expect from Axial. The 25mm shock length provides the precise suspension geometry needed for the SCX30's scale rock crawling capabilities, ensuring your vehicle maintains optimal articulation and ground clearance on challenging terrain.
This spare part is compatible with multiple SCX30 models across Ford Bronco, Chevrolet K10, and Jeep Wrangler platforms, making it a versatile solution for anyone running an Axial 1/30 scale rock crawler. Pre-assembly means you can get back to the action faster without the need for complex shock building or tuning—simply install and enjoy improved suspension performance. For RC enthusiasts in the UK looking to maintain, repair, or enhance their ready to run RC crawler, this genuine Axial component is an investment in consistent, reliable performance.
Rock crawling demands precision suspension geometry and responsive damping characteristics that can handle both smooth terrain and rocky obstacles. This shock set is engineered to meet those demands, providing the baseline suspension performance that Axial is recognised for in the RC off-road community. Whether you're tackling a local quarry, a rocky hillside, or indoor crawling terrain, having quality suspension components is critical to vehicle control and durability.
Key Features
- Pre-assembled Design — The shocks arrive fully assembled and ready to install directly onto your SCX30, eliminating assembly time and ensuring proper shock construction without the need for specialist tools or expertise.
- 25mm Shock Length — This specific 25mm dimension is optimised for the SCX30 suspension geometry, providing the correct suspension travel, ground clearance, and articulation characteristics that the chassis design requires.
- Genuine Axial Component — Manufactured by Axial as original equipment, these shocks are engineered to factory specifications and deliver the same performance characteristics as the shocks fitted to new SCX30 RTR models.
- Compatible with Multiple SCX30 Variants — Works with the Axial 1/30 SCX30 Ford Bronco 4X4 (both blue and grey variants), Chevrolet K10 4x4 (black and green variants), and Jeep Wrangler JLU 4X4 (green and white variants), making this a universal upgrade and replacement option across the entire SCX30 lineup.
- Suspension Spares Category — Classified as suspension spares, these components directly impact your crawler's handling, stability, and obstacle-climbing capability, making them a key maintenance and upgrade item.
- Reliable Damping Performance — Factory-tuned damping rates ensure consistent suspension behaviour whether you're crawling slowly over rocks or traversing uneven terrain at speed.
Technical Performance
The Axial Shock Set represents the engineering standard expected from factory suspension components on premium scale rock crawlers. The 25mm length has been precisely engineered to work with the SCX30's independent suspension architecture, maintaining the correct ride height, anti-squat geometry, and compression/extension travel that the chassis design demands. Quality suspension performance is particularly important in rock crawling where traction and obstacle negotiation depend on consistent tyre contact with uneven surfaces. The pre-assembled construction means each shock pair is built to identical specifications, ensuring balanced left-right suspension behaviour critical for stable cornering and predictable handling during technical manoeuvres. Material selection and internal damping characteristics have been optimised for the 1/30 scale, providing appropriate resistance to suspension movement while maintaining the responsiveness needed for scale-realistic crawling speeds and techniques. These shocks integrate seamlessly with the SCX30 platform, whether you're running the Ford Bronco 4X4 RTR in blue or grey, the Chevrolet K10 4x4 RTR in black or green, or the Jeep Wrangler JLU 4X4 RTR in green or white variants. The suspension performance directly influences your ability to climb steep obstacles, traverse rocky terrain, and maintain control in technical crawling situations.

Frequently Asked Questions
- Which SCX30 models is this shock set compatible with? — This 25mm shock set is compatible with the Axial 1/30 SCX30 Ford Bronco 4X4 RTR (model codes C-AXI-2048T1 in blue and C-AXI-2048T2 in grey), the Chevrolet K10 4x4 RTR (model codes C-AXI-2260T2 in black and C-AXI-2260T1 in green), and the Jeep Wrangler JLU 4X4 RTR (model codes C-AXI-2261T1 in green and C-AXI-2261T2 in white). If you own any of these genuine Axial SCX30 models, this shock set will install directly without modification.
- Are these shocks pre-assembled and ready to install? — Yes, these shocks arrive fully pre-assembled, meaning you can install them directly onto your SCX30 without needing to build, disassemble, or adjust them first. This saves setup time and ensures factory-specification assembly quality.
- Why would I need to replace the shocks on my SCX30? — Over time, shock damping characteristics can change due to internal fluid degradation, seal wear, or piston rod damage from crawling on rocky terrain. Replacing worn shocks restores the original suspension performance and handling characteristics of your rock crawler. Additionally, some enthusiasts upgrade shocks as part of a comprehensive suspension tuning project.
- Is this suitable for beginners? — Yes, this spare part is suitable for any SCX30 owner, whether beginner or experienced. The pre-assembled design means no specialist knowledge is required—simply remove the old shocks and install the new ones using basic RC tools. These are genuine Axial spares that maintain your crawler's original suspension geometry and performance.
- What is the difference between this shock set and alternatives? — These are genuine Axial original equipment spares engineered specifically for the SCX30 platform. The 25mm dimension is optimised for SCX30 suspension geometry, ensuring correct ride height, articulation, and handling. Non-genuine alternatives may use different damping rates, materials, or dimensions that could compromise suspension performance and vehicle handling characteristics.
