Race-Proven Shock Shafts by XRAY

Enthusiasts wanting a dependable rear suspension upgrade will appreciate the XRAY 358266 Rear Shock Shaft Set. These 66.5mm shafts are specified for the XB8 series and are designed for steady, repeatable performance in demanding conditions.

High-Tensile Steel for Longevity

Produced from special high-tensile steel, the shafts deliver strong resistance to wear and maintain straightness under repeated use, supporting long service life.

Hand-Finished for Smooth Movement

Each shaft is hand-ground to a very smooth finish, reducing internal shock friction and allowing the damper to move more freely for consistent damping response.

4mm Extra Length for Added Droop

With a 66.5mm length, these shafts are 4mm longer than typical options, offering extra droop that can enhance rear traction and stability on uneven surfaces.

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.

What maintenance should I do after fitting these shafts?

Inspect for straightness, ensure seals and bearings are clean, and check shock oil level and piston alignment after installation to keep smooth operation.

Will these work with aftermarket shock bodies?

They are designed for XB8-compatible rear shocks; if an aftermarket body follows the same internal dimensions and uses 3.5mm shafts, they will usually fit.

How does the finish affect performance?

The hand-ground finish reduces stiction and wear, allowing more consistent damping and longer life for seals and shock components.

Should I change pistons when switching to these shafts?

Pistons are generally compatible, but check travel and oil level after installation; changing piston sizes is only needed if you adjust overall damping characteristics.

Is the 3.5mm diameter standard for XB8?

Yes, the 3.5mm diameter is the standard shaft size for XRAY XB8 rear shocks, so these shafts match standard shock internals.
