Traxxas Shock Shafts TiN-Coated Long (2) improve shock response by cutting friction and resisting surface wear. These shafts are hardened steel with a titanium nitride surface and a micro-polished finish, so piston movement feels smoother and the shaft stands up better to repeated use.
These Traxxas Shock Shafts are a straightforward upgrade when you want quieter, more consistent damping and longer component life. They suit hobbyists who replace worn shafts or who want a simple performance upgrade for long Ultra Shocks.
You gotta have these for gray shocks. I used to bend the regular shafts after one race. These have lasted me all season and are still straight!
They look really good and seem like they might be better than the stock ones, but only time will tell.
Always keep extras
When you're bashing your Traxxas trucks, the stock shafts are gonna bend eventually. I always have a spare pack ready. I've got 4 Traxxas trucks: Stampede 2wd, Stampede 4x4, E-maxx, and a Slash. Replaced about 4 stock shafts so far, and these haven't bent or broken yet.
