These alloy rear shock absorbers are intended for the ARRMA 1/16 MINI KRATON 3S and come with 74mm centre-to-centre aluminium bodies pre-filled with 500cSt silicone oil to establish a reliable damping baseline for setup work.
The component selection supports quick tuning: bleeder screws allow easy air and oil release during service, while threaded preload adjusters let you alter ride height and initial spring compression without removing the shock. Upgraded 3.0mm shock shafts replace the stock 2.5mm items to increase stiffness and reduce shaft flex under load.
Two springs are supplied to broaden tuning scope: the fitted black spring (1.2mm wire) mirrors stock compliance and a stiffer silver spring (1.3mm wire) is included to firm the rear end, helping control squat and traction during acceleration.
Fit notes: these units replace rear absorbers of equal 74mm centre distance. Use recommended thread-lock on metal fasteners, bleed the shocks after filling and confirm eyelet and stud fit before final installation.
For drivers looking to refine rear balance without major chassis changes, these alloy shocks provide stiffer shafts, bleeder fittings and an extra spring for quick trackside adjustments on the 1/16 Mini Kraton 3S.
