Technical Performance
The Team Associated FT Hard Anodised Shock Bodies 1.32 are precision-engineered suspension components manufactured to exacting standards that reflect Team Associated's reputation for quality in the RC racing community. The hard-anodised aluminium construction provides superior durability compared to standard anodising, offering enhanced resistance to wear, corrosion and impact damage that would otherwise compromise suspension performance over time. The 1.32-inch stroke specification is critical for maintaining the correct suspension geometry and damping characteristics in vehicles such as the RC10GT and RC10 model range, ensuring that spring rates and shock oil viscosity tuning remain effective and predictable. The integrated collars and O-rings are precision-fitted components that ensure proper assembly without leakage or binding, critical factors in maintaining consistent suspension response through multiple heat cycles and varying track conditions. These shock bodies are compatible with the complete range of Team Associated shocks, springs and dampers specified for your vehicle, and their factory-standard dimensions ensure seamless integration with your existing suspension setup. Whether you are a weekend basher enjoying recreational off-road driving or a competitive racer demanding absolute consistency lap after lap, these genuine Factory Team components provide the foundation for reliable, predictable suspension performance.

Frequently Asked Questions
- Are these shock bodies compatible with my RC10 or RC10GT? — Yes, the Team Associated FT Hard Anodised Shock Bodies 1.32 are specifically designed for the RC10GT and RC10 model range. The 1.32-inch stroke specification matches the factory requirement for these vehicles, ensuring proper suspension geometry and damping performance.
- What is the difference between hard-anodised and standard anodising? — Hard-anodising provides a thicker, denser protective coating than standard anodising, resulting in significantly improved wear resistance, corrosion protection and durability. This makes hard-anodised shock bodies the preferred choice for intense use, competitive racing and vehicles subjected to regular maintenance cycles.
- Can I use these shock bodies as replacement parts or do I need to replace my entire shock assembly? — The FT Hard Anodised Shock Bodies 1.32 are designed as replacement components that work with your existing shocks, springs and dampers. They are ideal for maintenance and rebuilds when you need to refresh the shock body itself without replacing the complete shock assembly, making them a cost-effective upgrade option.
- Are the collars and O-rings included, or do I need to purchase them separately? — Both the collars and O-rings come integrated with these shock bodies, eliminating the need to source additional components during assembly or installation. This ensures you have everything required for proper fitment and function.
