GTX8 Big-Bore Shocks Overview

For the dedicated RC racer, the XRAY 358106 GTX8 Big-Bore Shock Absorbers offer a significant upgrade in performance and reliability. Engineered with precision, these shocks are built to withstand race conditions while delivering steady damping lap after lap.

Big-Bore Design Benefits

The GTX8 shock absorbers feature a large 18.5mm outer diameter, allowing fast spring preload changes using the external threaded collar. This layout helps your car stay balanced over a variety of surfaces. The titanium color hardcoated aluminum body provides both toughness and a clean, race-ready look.

Accurate Piston and Oil Control

These shock absorbers include precise pistons in 6-, 8-, and 10-hole patterns, molded from durable Delrin to ensure smooth, repeatable action. The 16mm inner diameter keeps oil flow consistent, so damping remains predictable from the first run to the last.

Robust Shafts and Serviceable Lower Assembly

The 3.5mm-thick shock shafts are made from high-tensile steel and polished for low friction during hard use. The lower shock pieces are simple to assemble and strip down, with silicone O-rings giving a secure seal while allowing free rod travel. Please note that springs are not included in this set.
Remark :
Due to limited stock availability, please notice that some XRAY items may have to order from the factory and the ready time is around 4-6 weeks. Customer purchases the item is assumed to accept the waiting time which allows us to order directly from the manufacturer if the item is out of our warehouse.

Will these fit other XRAY or third party kits?

These shocks are designed for the GTX8 platform. They may fit other cars with similar mounting dimensions but could require custom mounts or spacers for proper geometry.

Which piston options should I choose for racing?

Piston choice depends on track traction and driving style. Use 6-hole for heavier damping, 8-hole for a balanced feel, and 10-hole for lighter damping and more responsiveness.

What shock oil weights work best with these shocks?

Start with mid-range oil weights recommended for your car and track conditions, then fine tune. The 16mm inner diameter gives predictable response across common viscosities.

How often should I service the shocks?

Inspect seals and shafts after each event and refresh oil periodically. Clean and re-lubricate the lower assembly when you notice increased friction or leakage.
