Overview
The ARRMA Shock Spring Set E in Pink is an essential tuning component for owners of the 1/16 scale GORGON GROM and QUAKE GROM 4x4 RC monster trucks. Whether you're a seasoned RC enthusiast looking to dial in your vehicle's suspension characteristics or a dedicated hobbyist wanting to optimise your RC car UK performance, these precision-engineered shock springs offer a straightforward way to transform how your ready to run RC monster truck handles on various terrains. Suspension tuning is one of the most effective ways to improve your RC vehicle's overall performance, and these springs make the process quick and accessible.
These high-quality shock springs are manufactured from precision spring steel, ensuring consistent performance and long-lasting durability that will withstand repeated use on the track and off-road. The distinctive pink colour not only adds visual flair to your GROM setup but also makes it easy to identify your springs at the workshop or during maintenance. With a spring rate of 0.55N/mm (3.14lb/in), this set provides the flexibility needed for various driving conditions and personal preferences. Whether you're adjusting for softer or stiffer handling, shock springs are a critical component in the suspension tuning arsenal of any serious RC enthusiast.
For UK RC hobbyists, having a selection of different spring rates on hand is standard practice. This ARRMA Shock Spring Set E in pink is a genuine OEM component designed specifically for GROM platform vehicles, ensuring perfect fitment and compatibility. Rather than purchasing an entirely new shock assembly, spring sets allow you to experiment with different suspension characteristics in seconds, making them excellent value for money and a smart investment in your RC car collection.

Technical Performance
The suspension system of any RC vehicle is fundamental to its performance characteristics, and the springs are the core component that determines how the vehicle responds to bumps, maintains traction, and handles cornering forces. With a spring rate of 0.55N/mm (3.14lb/in), these ARRMA Shock Springs provide a moderate resistance to compression that strikes a balance between supporting the weight of the vehicle and allowing sufficient suspension travel for absorption of impacts. The precision manufacturing process ensures that all four springs in the set maintain identical characteristics, which is essential for balanced handling across the front and rear axles. The spring steel construction provides excellent durability and resistance to fatigue, meaning the springs will maintain their rate consistency throughout their service life even under the demanding conditions typical of RC vehicle use. For 1/16 scale brushed monster trucks like the GORGON GROM and QUAKE GROM 4x4 RTR models, these springs are designed to work in conjunction with the OEM shock absorbers to create a complete suspension system that can be tuned for different driving styles. Whether you're running on grass, dirt, carpet, or pavement, adjusting spring rates is one of the most practical ways to optimise grip, stability, and cornering performance without requiring new shocks or major modifications.

Frequently Asked Questions
- What vehicles are these shock springs compatible with? — These springs are designed specifically for ARRMA's 1/16 scale GORGON GROM 4X4 RTR Brushed Monster Truck and QUAKE GROM 4X4 RTR Brushed Monster Truck models. They fit all colour variants including Red, Yellow, Bronze, Green, and Purple editions of these vehicles.
- What does the 0.55N/mm spring rate mean? — The 0.55N/mm rating (also expressed as 3.14lb/in) indicates how much resistance the spring provides when compressed. A higher number means a stiffer spring, while a lower number means a softer spring. This moderate rate makes these springs suitable for general-purpose driving across various terrains and conditions.
- How many springs do I get in this set? — You receive a complete set of four springs, which is the correct quantity to replace or upgrade all four shock absorbers on your GROM vehicle, providing matched performance across the entire suspension system.
- Why would I want to change my shock springs? — Changing shock springs is one of the easiest and most effective ways to tune your RC vehicle's handling. Softer springs (lower N/mm rating) provide more compliance over bumps but may feel looser, while stiffer springs offer more support and stability but can feel harsh. Different track conditions, driving styles, and weather all benefit from different spring rates.
- Will these springs work with aftermarket shocks or just OEM ARRMA shocks? — These springs are specifically designed for ARRMA GROM platform shock absorbers. For compatibility with aftermarket shocks, you would need to verify that the shock body dimensions and spring attachment points match the ARRMA specifications.
- Is this suitable for beginners? — Yes, absolutely. Shock springs are one of the safest and easiest modifications a beginner can make to an RC vehicle. They require no special tools to install, they cannot damage anything if incorrectly fitted, and the effects are immediately noticeable, making them perfect for learning about suspension tuning.
- What is the difference between different spring rates? — Different spring rates affect how your vehicle responds to impacts and how much suspension travel is used. As a general guide, softer springs are better for bumpy terrain and provide more grip, while stiffer springs are better for smooth surfaces and high-speed driving where stability is prioritised.
