100mm aluminium internals for scale crawler tuning

This matched front and rear 100mm aluminium internal shock set is an aftermarket replacement for 1/10 scale crawlers. The parts maintain structural stiffness and consistent mounting to aid low-speed crawling and technical trail driving.

Installation notes: supplied as a matched pair, these shocks install into standard shock towers and lower mounts used by the listed platforms, replacing internal-style units. Basic setup steps include confirming full-stroke clearance, checking mounting pin alignment, and matching springs to vehicle weight and driving style. No specialized tools are required beyond common hex drivers and a shock bleed tool for final assembly.

Tuning role: aluminium bodies reduce housing flex and make small adjustments more repeatable; these units accept common crawler springs and standard shock hardware to refine ride height, articulation response, and controlled rebound on technical lines.

Compatible Models

  • HPI Crawler King
  • Gmade R1
  • Vaterra K5

The CGK5100 aluminium internal shocks are a straightforward aftermarket option for builders needing 100mm front and rear replacements for the listed crawler platforms, giving durable housings and a predictable installation path for tuning sessions.

They are designed for standard shock towers and lower mounts used on the compatible models, but verify pin diameter and stroke clearance before tightening.
Start with a spring similar to your stock setup and adjust based on vehicle weight and how much articulation or stiffness you want.
Use a shock tool to compress and allow trapped air to escape while topping up oil, then cycle the shock slowly until no bubbles remain.
Inspect mounting pins, seals and body threads after runs, clean out dust, and replace worn seals or O-rings as needed to maintain consistent damping.
