Technical Performance
The ARRMA Aluminium Shock Set represents the pinnacle of aftermarket suspension engineering for 1/8 scale RC vehicles. Every component has been meticulously designed and manufactured to exacting standards. The 15mm bore aluminium shock bodies provide the optimal combination of strength and lightweight construction, whilst the 300cSt silicone oil ensures smooth, consistent damping across the full range of suspension travel. This viscosity grade is particularly well-suited to the MOJAVE 4X4 4S brushless desert truck, where it delivers responsive handling across varying terrain without excessive harshness or wallowing. The 143mm length positions these shocks perfectly within the ARRMA platform, maintaining proper suspension geometry and ensuring your vehicle's weight is distributed correctly for optimal handling dynamics. These shocks have been engineered to complement the brushless power systems in modern ARRMA vehicles, providing the suspension response necessary to harness full motor performance whilst keeping your RC car stable and planted throughout acceleration, braking, and cornering phases. Whether you're pushing your RC car to its limits on a UK race track or enjoying recreational bashing in local parks, these shocks deliver the performance and reliability that serious enthusiasts expect.

Frequently Asked Questions
- What ARRMA models are these shocks compatible with? — These 15mm bore, 143mm length shocks are specifically designed for the ARRMA 1/8 MOJAVE 4X4 4S BLX Desert Truck RTR, available in both the blue (C-ARA4404T2) and white (C-ARA4404T1) variants. This compatibility ensures perfect fit and optimal performance on these desert truck models.
- What does 300cSt oil viscosity mean and why does it matter? — The 300cSt rating refers to the thickness of the silicone oil used inside the shocks. Higher numbers indicate thicker oil that provides more resistance to compression and rebound. The 300cSt rating has been specifically selected to provide smooth, predictable damping that balances responsiveness with impact absorption, making it ideal for general-purpose driving and varied terrain.
- Are these shocks suitable for a beginner RC car user? — Yes, these shocks are suitable for anyone using an ARRMA MOJAVE 4X4 4S brushless truck. The 300cSt oil viscosity is moderate and forgiving, making it appropriate for new users whilst still offering enough performance for experienced drivers. However, these are replacement parts rather than complete shock assemblies, so some basic RC knowledge is helpful for installation.
- How do I know if I need these specific shocks? — If you own an ARRMA 1/8 MOJAVE 4X4 4S BLX Desert Truck RTR and are experiencing poor suspension response, excessive bouncing, or if your current shocks are leaking or damaged, upgrading to this genuine ARRMA shock set will restore your vehicle's handling and performance to factory specification or better.
- Can I use these shocks on other RC car models? — These shocks are specifically engineered for the ARRMA MOJAVE 4X4 4S models with 15mm bore suspension. Whilst they may physically fit other 1/8 scale vehicles with similar suspension geometry, ARRMA has calibrated them specifically for the MOJAVE platform, so using them on other models may result in suboptimal handling characteristics.
- What is the difference between this and the 131mm shock set? — The primary difference is length. This 143mm set is optimised for the MOJAVE 4X4 4S, whilst the shorter 131mm option (Z-ARA330793) is designed for different ARRMA models. Length affects your vehicle's ride height and suspension geometry, so using the correct length for your specific model is essential for proper handling.
