HPI Baja Front L-shape Alloy Dampers 186mm BJ186F/L by GPM  [BJ186F/L]

Front L-shape Alloy Shock Assembly

This front shock assembly is aimed at HPI Baja style buggies and is supplied as a single pair with an L-shape lower mount and a piggyback reservoir. The damper bodies are aluminium and the measured unit length is 186mm as shown in the product title.

Role and setup guidance: the L-shape lower section locates the lower eye to suit Baja front suspension geometry, while the piggyback reservoir provides extra oil volume for steadier damping during repeated impacts. Use common shock oil weights and make progressive piston or spring changes when dialing in compression and rebound.

Fitment tips: verify mounting hole spacing and overall length against your Baja shock towers before fitting, replace one pair at a time to retain predictable handling, and recheck spring preload and end-point travel after installation. These dampers are adjustable; tweak damping through reservoir settings and spring preload where accessible.

For HPI Baja owners wanting metal-bodied front dampers with piggyback tuning, the BJ186F/L pair serves as a straightforward upgrade when the 186mm length and L-mount geometry match the chassis. Check mount measurements and plan oil and spring choices to suit track or off-road running.
