TRAXXAS Unlimited Desert Racer Top Cap Upgrade 7075-T6 - UDRDP/CAP by GPM  [UDRDP/CAP]

7075-T6 Top-of-Damper Caps

These aftermarket shock caps are produced for TRAXXAS Unlimited Desert Racer platforms with emphasis on stronger construction and improved serviceability. CNC-machined from 7075-T6 aluminum, the caps replace the OEM top caps and are designed to be compatible with stock shock bodies and GPM aftermarket shocks.

Highlights include built-in bladders to enhance sealing life, a breather/bleeder hole to assist pressure relief and routine fluid service, and a pivot ball interface to retain smooth suspension articulation at the damper crown. The kit is intended as a direct replacement using existing mounting points.

Installation advice: remove the shock from the arm or tower to access the top cap, control or drain the oil before disassembly, swap in the alloy cap and the supplied bladder, then reassemble and inspect the bleeder port for leaks. Some experience with shock rebuilds helps ensure correct assembly and oil level.

Effect on tuning: the caps do not change internal valving. They support improved sealing and can help keep damping consistent, and the pivot ball interface may slightly affect articulation, but valving and oil choices remain the primary tuning tools.

Package contents: 4 aluminum shock caps and 4 shock bladders for front and rear damper tops as supplied by the manufacturer.

For TRAXXAS owners wanting a durable replacement top cap with improved service access, these 7075-T6 alloy caps give a material upgrade and service features while leaving damper valving unchanged.
