Key Features

• CNC-Machined Aluminium Shock Bodies — The shock bodies are precision-manufactured using CNC machining technology, which ensures perfectly consistent dimensions and superior durability compared to cast alternatives, resulting in shocks that maintain their performance characteristics over extended use and countless trail sessions.
• Ultra-Smooth Delrin Pistons — The pistons feature Delrin material construction, a high-performance engineering polymer that offers exceptional smoothness and consistency during compression and extension cycles, providing predictable dampening behaviour that translates to more confident driving and better feedback from the suspension.
• Polished Steel Shock Shafts — The shock shafts are crafted from polished steel, which resists corrosion and wear whilst providing the precision tolerances required for smooth piston movement, ensuring that your shocks maintain their responsive feel even after exposure to mud, water and demanding trail conditions.
• Threaded Aluminium Spring Collars — The spring collar design features threaded aluminium construction, allowing you to make quick and accurate spring preload adjustments without requiring special tools, enabling fine-tuning of your suspension geometry to match different terrain types and driving styles.
• Chromed Steel Pivot Balls — The pivot balls are chrome-plated steel components that provide reliable articulation at the shock mounting points, with the protective chrome finish resisting rust and maintaining smooth operation throughout the life of the shock set.
• Grey Coil Springs with 1.49 lb/in Rate — Element RC's specifically selected grey springs feature a 1.49 lb/in spring rate, providing the optimal balance between ride comfort and suspension control for trail truck applications, allowing the chassis to soak up impacts whilst maintaining stability during cornering and acceleration.
• Complete Mounting Hardware Included — This shock set arrives with all necessary fasteners and mounting hardware, ensuring that installation is straightforward and that you have every component required to fit the shocks to your compatible trail truck without requiring separate purchases.

Technical Performance

This 10x90mm shock set represents the pinnacle of trail truck suspension engineering, combining multiple premium materials and precision manufacturing techniques to create a system that excels across diverse terrain types. The CNC-machined aluminium bodies provide exceptional rigidity and dimensional consistency, whilst the Delrin pistons deliver ultra-smooth dampening characteristics that remain consistent throughout the compression and extension cycle. The polished steel shock shafts resist wear and corrosion, ensuring that the shocks maintain their responsive feel even after repeated exposure to mud, water, rocks and other challenging trail environments common to UK RC enthusiasts. The chrome-plated steel pivot balls enable smooth articulation at all connection points, and the threaded aluminium spring collars allow for precise spring preload adjustment without specialised equipment. With the grey coil springs rated at 1.49 lb/in, the shock set strikes an excellent balance between ride comfort and suspension responsiveness, making it equally capable on slow technical climbs and faster open terrain. The complete inclusion of all mounting hardware means installation is straightforward, and the overall engineering quality suggests longevity and consistent performance that justifies investment in this upgrade for serious trail truck operators.

Frequently Asked Questions

• What are the benefits of upgrading to a dedicated shock set for my Element RC trail truck? — A quality shock set like this offers several advantages over standard equipment: improved dampening consistency, better ground contact and traction across varied terrain, reduced component fatigue and longer overall lifespan, and significantly improved handling precision. For UK RC trail enthusiasts, upgrading shocks often results in noticeably more confident driving, especially on technical sections where suspension response directly impacts traction and control.
• How do I adjust the spring preload on these shocks? — The threaded aluminium spring collars allow you to adjust spring preload without specialised tools. Simply rotate the collar to increase or decrease preload, which affects ride height and suspension stiffness. Most drivers make small incremental adjustments and test on their preferred terrain to find the optimal setting for their driving style and conditions.
• Are these shocks suitable for both beginners and experienced drivers? — Yes, these shocks work well for any skill level. Beginners will appreciate the responsive and forgiving characteristics, whilst experienced drivers benefit from the precision engineering and adjustability that allows fine-tuning to match specific terrain and driving preferences. The smooth Delrin pistons and quality construction mean these shocks perform consistently regardless of driver experience.
• How do the 1.49 lb/in springs compare to other spring rates? — The 1.49 lb/in rate is specifically calibrated for trail truck applications, providing a sweet spot between comfort and control. Stiffer springs offer more immediate response and higher cornering speeds, whilst softer springs provide more compliance over obstacles. This rate is ideal for mixed terrain trail driving where you need both comfort and predictability.
• Will these shocks work with standard trail truck bodies and chassis? — These shocks are specifically designed for Element RC Enduro trail truck models and are compatible with the full range listed above. The 10x90mm dimensions are standard for trail truck suspension, so they will integrate seamlessly with your existing chassis geometry and mounting points.
• How often will I need to service or maintain these shocks? — With quality construction using premium materials like polished steel and Delrin, these shocks require minimal maintenance during normal use. After exposure to water or particularly muddy conditions, a rinse with fresh water is recommended. Periodically check that all fasteners remain tight, and the threaded collars stay secure. The quality of construction suggests these shocks will provide years of reliable service with basic care.
