Technical Performance
Team Associated's engineering reputation is built on precision manufacturing, and these rear shock springs exemplify that commitment to quality. The 1.80 lb/in spring rate represents a carefully calibrated compromise that works across a broad range of track conditions and driving styles, making it an excellent starting point for suspension tuning on your RC buggy, truck or touring car. The spring constant was selected to provide responsive handling without introducing excessive harshness, allowing your RC car to maintain traction through corners whilst remaining stable under acceleration and braking. The 61 mm free length is not arbitrary—it's precisely calculated to work within the suspension geometry of compatible Associated platforms, ensuring correct ride height and shock travel. The green finish is applied using durable coating processes that resist fading through countless hours of operation under UV light and temperature extremes common in UK outdoor RC driving. The spring material itself is crafted from high-grade alloy steel, heat-treated to exacting standards to ensure consistent performance, minimal material degradation over time, and excellent fatigue resistance through thousands of compression and extension cycles. Whether you're racing on carpet indoors or outdoor dirt tracks, these springs will maintain their performance characteristics and continue delivering the handling refinement that separates good setups from great ones.
