Key Features
- Complete Composite Shock Assembly Kit — This package includes all four shock assemblies needed to refresh or upgrade your SCX10 III suspension system, eliminating the need to source individual components separately and ensuring matched performance across all four corners of your RC rock crawler.
- Genuine AXIAL Manufacturing — These are authentic OEM (original equipment manufacturer) components designed and produced by AXIAL specifically for the SCX10 III platform, guaranteeing exact fitment and proper suspension geometry without compatibility concerns.
- Composite Material Construction — The composite construction provides an optimal balance between lightweight design and structural rigidity, allowing your suspension to respond quickly to terrain changes whilst maintaining durability through repeated impact cycles typical of rock crawling.
- Precision Piston Design — Each shock includes a precision 8mm piston with specific orifice sizing (01.2mm x3 holes), engineered to provide controlled damping characteristics that allow the suspension to absorb impacts whilst maintaining responsiveness on rocky, uneven surfaces.
- Four-Corner Coverage — The kit includes four complete shock units (one for each corner), plus all necessary components like pistons, bump stops, ball ends and springs, providing complete suspension coverage without additional purchases.
- Professional-Grade Components — The inclusion of shock shims, lower spring perches and spring adjusters allows experienced builders and tuners to fine-tune suspension geometry and damping characteristics for specific terrain conditions and driving styles.
- Easy Installation — These are drop-in replacement parts that work seamlessly with SCX10 III rock crawlers and compatible models, making maintenance and upgrades straightforward for enthusiasts familiar with RC suspension systems.
Technical Performance
The AXIAL Shock Parts deliver suspension performance engineered specifically for the demands of 1/10-scale rock crawling applications. The composite material selection represents a deliberate engineering choice to optimise the balance between weight and durability—critical factors when traversing rocky, obstacle-laden terrain where suspension articulation and consistency determine success. The 8mm piston design with precision-engineered orifice sizing (01.2mm x3 holes) creates controlled fluid flow through the shock chamber during compression and extension cycles. This engineering approach allows the suspension to provide rapid initial response to terrain impacts whilst maintaining progressive damping that prevents bottoming-out during aggressive descents or challenging rock gardens. The inclusion of shock shims enables fine-tuning of compression and rebound characteristics, allowing enthusiasts to adapt the suspension to different terrain types, from tight technical rock crawling to more open trail conditions. The lower spring perch and spring adjuster system provides adjustability for ride height and spring preload, essential tools for optimising ground clearance and weight distribution on angled terrain. With four complete shock assemblies included, your SCX10 III benefits from matched, consistent performance across all four corners, maintaining predictable handling characteristics and stable suspension geometry even when navigating extreme off-road conditions.

Frequently Asked Questions
- Are these shock parts suitable for my SCX10 III rock crawler? — Yes, these AXIAL composite shock parts are specifically engineered for the SCX10 III platform and serve as official replacement and optional parts for the SCX10 III Base Camp and other SCX10 III variants. They are genuine OEM components, ensuring perfect fitment and performance alignment with your rock crawler.
- Can I use these shocks to upgrade my existing SCX10 III? — Absolutely. These shocks function as both replacement parts for worn or damaged suspensions and optional upgrade parts for enthusiasts wanting to refresh or modify their suspension setup. The complete kit approach means you can upgrade all four corners simultaneously for consistent performance.
- What is the difference between composite shocks and other materials? — The composite construction offers a balanced approach to RC suspension design. Composite materials provide excellent strength-to-weight ratio, responding quickly to terrain changes whilst maintaining durability through repeated impacts typical of rock crawling. This differs from full metal designs which might be heavier, and polymer-only designs which might not withstand extreme rock crawling abuse as effectively.
- Do I need to be an experienced builder to install these shocks? — These are drop-in replacement components, but installation does require basic familiarity with RC suspension systems. You'll need to remove existing shock units and install these in their place. If you're experienced with maintaining your SCX10 III, installation should be straightforward. If you're new to RC maintenance, consulting the official AXIAL manual or seeking help from experienced RC builders in the UK RC community is recommended.
- What vehicles besides the Base Camp can use these shocks? — According to the manufacturer's compatibility information, these shocks are compatible with multiple SCX10 III variants including the SCX10 III Coyote 4X4 RTR, SCX10 III Toyota SR5 RTR, SCX10 III Jeep JT Gladiator with Portals, SCX10 III Jeep CJ-7 RTR, SCX10 III Early Ford Bronco, and the SCX10 III Builder's Kit. Always verify your specific model before purchasing.
- Can I adjust the suspension characteristics with this kit? — Yes, the included shock shims, lower spring perches and spring adjusters allow you to fine-tune compression and rebound characteristics, adjust ride height and modify spring preload. This adjustability enables experienced enthusiasts to optimise suspension performance for specific terrain types and driving conditions.
