Overview
Take the guesswork out of suspension setup with the Tekno RC Droop Gauge. Traditional droop measuring methods that rely on overall shock length often produce misleading and inconsistent results, because variables like hub height and shock mounting position change the number without changing the actual geometry.
This gauge sidesteps all of that by measuring what really matters: driveshaft position in relation to the chassis. It reads from -8mm to +8mm, so you can set and repeat a droop number across both ends of the car and across different platforms in your pit area.
Key Features
- Measures droop from driveshaft position relative to the chassis, not shock length
- Measurement range of -8mm to +8mm
- Precision-machined aluminum body with laser etching and anodized finish
- Hinged droop blocks, 40mm tall, made from composite material
- Composite blocks are light and will not scratch the chassis
- Universal for 1/8 scale race buggies and truggies
Performance Benefits
- Repeatable droop numbers you can trust from one session to the next
- Removes hub height and shock mounting position from the measurement
- Lets you match front-to-rear droop with confidence
- One gauge covers every 1/8 buggy and truggy in the trailer
Usage Notes
- Measure on a flat, level setup board for best results
- Check both sides of the car and record the numbers on your setup sheet
- Re-check droop after any arm, hub or shock change
- Keep the gauge clean and free of dirt so the blocks sit flat
- Sized for 1/8 scale buggies and truggies
