Technical Performance
These 13 x 27mm shock bodies are engineered using Team Associated's Factory Team standards, which demand precision manufacturing, quality material selection and rigorous quality control. The genuine FOX Kashima coating process involves specialised surface treatment that reduces friction between moving components, enhances corrosion resistance in outdoor racing environments, and maintains consistent performance across repeated use cycles. The specific 13 x 27mm dimensions are calculated to deliver optimal suspension geometry and travel characteristics when integrated into Team Associated FT-platform builds. Whether you're using these for competitive racing where precision matters, recreational bashing where durability is essential, or scale RC car building where authenticity is valued, these shock bodies perform as intended by their designers. The FOX Kashima treatment means your suspension will maintain smoother action over time compared to uncoated alternatives, which is particularly valuable during intensive track sessions or multiple back-to-back bashings.
