Overview
Upgrade your Traxxas Mini Maxx suspension with the Hot Racing 87mm Aluminum Threaded-Body Damper Shocks. Sold as a pair of fully-assembled, race-ready dampers, these shocks deliver the smooth action, fine ride-height control, and rebuildable design that serious bashers and racers demand from a high-end shock package.
Threaded shock bodies and aluminum collars allow precise, infinitely adjustable ride-height tuning, while hardened steel shafts and bleeder screws make rebuilds quick and consistent. A locking-design spring perch keeps your settings exactly where you set them — even after the hardest landings.
