Frequently Asked Questions

• Which Element RC Enduro models are compatible with the EL42256 shock mount inserts? — These shock mount inserts are designed to fit the complete Element RC Enduro trail truck range, including the Element RC Enduro Ecto Trail Truck RTR in green (EL40117), black (EL40122) and grey with portal axles (EL40130), the Element RC Enduro Trail Truck Zuul Tan RTR (EL40124), the Element RC Enduro Trail Truck Knightrunner RTR in blue (EL40115), and the Element RC Enduro Trail Truck Knightwalker Red RTR (EL40121). If you own any of these Enduro models, the EL42256 inserts will fit your vehicle.
• When should I replace my shock mount inserts? — You should inspect your shock mount inserts regularly if you frequently use your Element RC trail truck, particularly if you notice changes in suspension feel, inconsistent handling, or if the inserts show visible wear, cracking or deformation. Heavy trail use and rock crawling will wear these components faster than occasional recreational driving.
• Are these shock mount inserts difficult to install? — These are straightforward replacement components that can be installed by RC enthusiasts with basic mechanical knowledge. If you're unfamiliar with suspension work, detailed installation guidance is usually available through Element RC's technical resources or from your local RC hobby shop.
• What is the difference between shock mount inserts and complete shocks? — Shock mount inserts are the small components that seat within the shock mounting points and help position the shock absorber correctly within the suspension geometry. Complete shocks include the shock body, springs and internal components. Replacing just the inserts is a cost-effective way to restore suspension geometry without replacing entire shock assemblies.
• Why would I need replacement shock mount inserts? — These components can wear, compress or deform over time through regular trail driving, rock impacts, and suspension cycling. Worn inserts can affect suspension geometry, leading to inconsistent handling, altered ride height, or suboptimal shock positioning, all of which can be corrected by installing fresh inserts.
