Remark :
Due to limited stock availability, please notice that some XRAY items may have to order from the factory and the ready time is around 4-6 weeks. Customer purchases the item is assumed to accept the waiting time which allows us to order directly from the manufacturer if the item is out of our warehouse.

Will these improve cornering on carpet tracks?

The larger bore and firmer construction can help maintain damping consistency on carpet, but proper oil and spring choice remain essential.

Do these require different shock pistons?

Standard XB8 pistons are compatible; piston selection should be based on desired damping rather than body material.

How should I preserve the finish on aluminium bodies?

Regular cleaning after runs and light lubrication on threads will protect the surface and ensure smooth adjustment.

Are these a direct swap for stock plastic bodies?

They are a direct fit for the XB8 series, but expect a change in damping feel and plan to re-tune your setup accordingly.
