Team Associated 13mm Truck Shocks & Springs

Team Associated has released the option for RC10T6.2 and RC10SC6.2 owners to upgrade to 13mmm shocks. Take advantage of the 13mm shock technology from the RC10B6.4 buggy that offers a superior ride for bumps and jumps. The larger 13mm-bore piston allows you to run lighter oils to get the low-speed feeling of a soft shock, but with more pack as you take off and land your jumps. This translates to a truck that soaks up the bumps in and out of corners but packs up in the high-speed landings to give you the feeling of landing on a pillow. The 13mm X 36mm shock body is also available in a genuine FOX Kashima Coat version with AE offering a range of 54mm truck front springs and 72mm truck rear springs for the upgrade.
