These aluminium rear shocks are an aftermarket replacement developed for TAMIYA DT-04 RC FIGHTER NXGEN rear suspension. Built from 6061-T6 and supplied as oil-filled sealed units, they aim to reduce internal stiction and better manage rear-end load shifts for improved balance on corner exit and under power.
Core mechanical details in the set: a 95mm shock centre distance, a thicker 3.5mm shaft for improved rigidity, and both black and silver spring variants to tune spring rate. The damping oil is specified as 500cSt silicone and the shock pin is hardened to resist wear, which suits hobbyists seeking predictable rear damping characteristics.
Fit and setup: these shocks mount into the DT-04 rear shock positions and replace the stock rear absorbers when used with the correct mounts and hardware. The kit includes the necessary screws and springs, and external preload plus end-stop adjustment lets you alter ride height and initial stiffness.
For DT-04 users aiming for firmer, more controllable rear suspension, this aluminium, oil-filled shock kit offers a simple upgrade route to tune damping and spring rate without permanent changes to the chassis.
