HobbyPark All Metal Shocks for Traxxas Rustler 4X4 VXL Slash 2WD 4x4 Hoss Stampede Bandit Nitro Shock Absorber Damper Set 1/10 Upgrades Parts Replace of 5862 (4-Pack) (Blue)

Bought these for a friend's Rustler VXL and they fit like a champ. The shocks are a smidge high on the stock Traxxas body, but they look sharp and perform well. The price for a four set is great too.

After about 20 packs I can say these are doing great ! Ran 50w oil and couldn’t be happier with the performance. Any high speed launching and flat tracking is far better controlled than the stock suspension. (Stock wasn’t bad) I have sway bars and these bolted right up without the need for fabrication. The kit came with everything needed. And no leaks at all !!! Update 1. front shock shaft broke (after a 30mph hit) and I’m not sure how to get parts !!! Update 2. Hobbypark has an absolutely incredible customer service department and took care of me 100%. Sent photos and they sent parts in 2 days. Can’t get any better than that!! Thank you Hobbypark.

Installed on a Traxxas Slash 4x4 and it is a completely different car now. The truck rolled a lot with the stock shocks when cornering and now it drives like it’s on rails. Very good shocks for the money.

Installed in my traxxas stampede 2wd. Fit perfectly and the shocks make it sit a little higher than stock. No issues so far. Been doing a few bash sessions and they are holding up.

Does anyone know where I can get just the shafts for these?

They do not have a bleeder and it’s gonna be hard to get all the air out of the shock's once you put the oil in there. With a lot of tinkering, you can get close to getting all of the air out of the shocks. I put these on the back of my stampede 4x4 bl2s. The springs that go on the shocks are a little weak but should do well. If they break, I’ll put it in the update here.

Excellent shock I use these on my MJX 10208 and they last much better than the originals

Besides looking nice, there's no benefit over the stock Traxxas Stampede VXL shocks.
