Overview
The HoBao Hyper TT2.0 Front Shock Springs Grey (2) are essential suspension tuning components designed specifically for the HoBao Hyper TT2.0 truggy platform. As a dedicated RC hobbyist in the UK, you'll appreciate how these OEM replacement springs allow you to fine-tune your truggy's handling characteristics for different track conditions and driving styles. These front shock springs are engineered to deliver precise suspension geometry, ensuring your RC truggy maintains optimal contact with the ground during aggressive cornering, jumps and high-speed runs.
Whether you're a weekend basher enjoying your RC car UK adventures or a competitive racer pushing your HB-TT2E to its limits, having spare shock springs in your parts box is essential maintenance. The HoBao Hyper TT2.0 is renowned for its aggressive performance capabilities, and these grey front springs play a crucial role in controlling squat and dive during acceleration and braking. These springs work in tandem with your shock absorber to absorb impacts and maintain suspension travel throughout your run, making them a genuine upgrade over worn or damaged original components.
This pack contains two front shock springs, colour-coded grey, which means they offer a specific spring rate of 1.00 kg/cm. This rating provides a balanced suspension setup suitable for a variety of track conditions and driving techniques. Whether you need replacement springs after heavy use, or you're looking to experiment with different spring rates to optimise your truggy's performance, these HoBao genuine parts are the perfect choice for keeping your RC investment running smoothly.
Key Features
- Genuine HoBao OEM Components — These front shock springs are manufactured by HoBao to exact factory specifications, ensuring perfect compatibility and proven performance with your HB-TT2E Hyper TT2.0 truggy truck. Using genuine parts maintains warranty coverage and ensures you're getting components engineered specifically for your vehicle's suspension geometry.
- Colour-Coded Grey Spring Rate — The grey colour designation indicates a 1.00 kg/cm spring rate, allowing you to identify your springs at a glance and maintain consistency across your suspension setup. This standardised colour-coding system is recognised across the RC hobby community.
- Pair of Two Springs — This pack contains two front shock springs, perfect for a complete front suspension upgrade or as spares to maintain in your pit box during racing events. Having duplicate springs ensures consistency between left and right sides of your vehicle.
- Precision Suspension Tuning — By changing spring rates, you can adjust your truggy's ride height, handling balance and responsiveness to suit different track surfaces, weather conditions and driving techniques. Softer springs provide more comfort and traction, whilst stiffer springs offer better control during aggressive manoeuvres.
- Durability and Reliability — Constructed from quality steel material engineered to withstand the demands of competitive RC truggy racing and casual bashing alike. These springs maintain their characteristics through hundreds of hours of use, providing consistent performance lap after lap.
- Direct Compatibility — These springs are specifically engineered for HoBao TT2.0 Pro Truggy models, including the HB-TT2E ARTR Clear Body, HB-TT2E-C60SV RTR Silver Body, and HB-TT2E-C60BU RTR Blue Body variants, ensuring perfect fitment and performance integration.
Technical Performance
The HoBao Hyper TT2.0 Front Shock Springs represent precision engineering in suspension tuning components. With a spring rate of 1.00 kg/cm, these springs are calibrated to provide the right balance of compliance and support for the TT2.0 platform's aggressive geometry. The HoBao Hyper TT2.0 is a high-performance electric truggy designed for both competitive racing and recreational bashing, and these suspension components are integral to delivering the vehicle's renowned handling characteristics. Spring rate selection is critical in RC tuning — a 1.00 kg/cm rating sits in the mid-range of available options, making these springs suitable for varied track conditions including asphalt, concrete, dirt and mixed terrain. The grey colour-coding helps you quickly identify the spring rate, preventing accidental mixing of different rates that could cause unbalanced handling. These springs work in conjunction with your shock absorber fluid and piston to create a complete damping system that controls vehicle pitch, roll and squat during acceleration, braking and cornering. Quality steel construction ensures these springs maintain their load-bearing characteristics throughout extended use, resisting fatigue and maintaining consistent performance even after hundreds of heat cycles. For RC car UK enthusiasts looking to optimise their TT2.0's suspension geometry, these genuine HoBao springs offer the reliability and precision that serious RC hobbyists demand.

Frequently Asked Questions
- What does the 1.00 kg/cm spring rate mean? — The spring rate indicates how much force is required to compress the spring by one centimetre. A 1.00 kg/cm rating means these are relatively soft springs that compress easily, providing good compliance on bumpy tracks and landing impacts. This mid-range rate suits most driving conditions and styles, making these springs ideal for general-purpose use rather than specialised tuning applications.
- Are these springs compatible with all HoBao Hyper TT2.0 models? — Yes, these front shock springs are specifically designed for all HoBao TT2.0 Pro Truggy variants including the HB-TT2E ARTR, HB-TT2E-C60SV RTR and HB-TT2E-C60BU RTR models. They will not fit other scales or platforms, so ensure you're purchasing for the correct vehicle before ordering.
- When should I replace my front shock springs? — You should consider replacing your shock springs if they appear visibly damaged, bent or discoloured, or if you notice your truggy's ride height has changed noticeably. Springs can lose their load-carrying capacity over time through repeated compression cycles, affecting your vehicle's handling and ground clearance. Most competitive racers keep spare springs in their pit box for quick adjustments between heats or if damage occurs during events.
- Can I use different spring rates on the front and rear? — Yes, in fact most RC tuning setups use different spring rates front and rear to balance handling characteristics. Your front springs control nose dive during braking and help with traction, whilst rear springs manage squat during acceleration. Experimenting with different combinations is part of the suspension tuning process, and having multiple spring rates available helps you dial in your TT2.0's performance for specific conditions.
- What tools do I need to install these springs? — Installation typically requires basic RC tools including hex wrenches to remove your shock bodies from the suspension arms, and possibly a spring compression tool or vice to safely remove the old springs and install the new ones. Most RC hobbyists are familiar with this process, though if you're new to suspension work, many local RC shops and clubs are happy to assist with fitment.
