This Kyosho W5303-14B Shock Shaft (44/2pcs) is listed as a replacement for front shocks on 1/10 electric powered (EP) buggies to adjust front shock travel. The item is supplied as a pair of 44mm shafts and is identified as 2mm longer than the W5184-04 front shaft, which can affect mounting geometry and stroke limits.
Compatibility and role: Suited to front shock setups on 1/10 EP buggy platforms, the added shaft length changes the available compression and extension, so verify your shock eyelet spacing and chassis clearance before fitting. This component is intended as an aftermarket replacement for fine adjustments to suspension travel.
Installation notes: To replace, remove the shock from the chassis, disassemble the shock body, replace the original shaft with the W5303-14B, and reassemble. Reuse springs, pistons, and oil where appropriate, but inspect seals and piston condition during the service.
Tuning guidance: The 2mm longer shaft subtly alters mid-travel and end-stop behavior; pair this modification with spring and damper changes as required and test incrementally to establish the best settings for your chassis and track conditions.
The W5303-14B 44mm shaft pair is a practical, reversible option for hobbyists needing a precise change in front shock travel on 1/10 EP buggies.
