Alloy Front Shock Overview

This aftermarket 115mm front shock is a direct RC replacement designed for ARRMA 1/8 models listed below, supplied by GPM under model MNV6115F. The body is machined from aluminium 6061-T6 to improve durability over stock plastic parts, and the unit matches the front mounting centre distance at 115mm.

Key mechanical revisions include a thickened shock shaft enlarged to 6.0mm from the original 4.0mm, and main springs with a 2.0mm wire diameter. The shocks leave the factory prefilled with 1000cSt silicone oil to deliver firmer rebound damping and a consistent stroke out of the box. GPM also includes a pair of secondary springs with a 1.7mm wire diameter for a softer option.

The assemblies arrive pre-assembled for a straightforward swap-in. For secure installation, use medium-strength screw glue on fasteners if you run aggressively to minimise the chance of loosening. This part is intended for hobby RC use only and not for any road vehicle application.

How can I confirm this shock fits my ARRMA model?

Check the Compatible Models list above; the listed ARRMA entries indicate the intended front mounting geometry and fitment for this shock. If your model matches one of the listed SKU lines it will fit the front mounts designed for 115mm centre distance.

What springs are included and how do they affect ride feel?

The shock ships with 2.0mm wire diameter springs fitted for a firmer response, plus an extra pair of 1.7mm wire springs for a softer setup. Swap to the lighter springs to reduce initial rate and increase compliance over rough surfaces.

Are the shocks ready to run out of the box?

Yes. Units are factory prefilled with 1000cSt silicone oil to give stronger rebound damping and a smooth stroke straight from installation, although you can re-oil them for tuning preferences.

Does the aluminium construction offer real benefits over plastic?

Aluminium 6061-T6 bodies provide greater rigidity and wear resistance compared with stock plastic parts, which improves repeatable damping and long term serviceability under hard use.

Any fitting tips to prevent problems after installation?

Fit shocks to the front mounts in the correct orientation, verify clevis and eyelet alignment, and apply medium-strength screw glue where needed on screws that see high vibration to help prevent loosening.

Can I change oil weight and springs for track tuning?

Yes. The unit is serviceable for oil and spring swaps; using different viscosities and spring rates lets you tune ride height, stroke control and rebound to match your driving surface and handling goals.
