best shocks between Axial and Traxxas Hi, could you tell me your opinion about shocks, between Traxxas TRX-4 shocks and Axial SCX10-3 shocks, which one is better than the other ? Regards. |
Re: best shocks between Axial and Traxxas In my experience trx4 have worked better for me, as far as not leaking. Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk |
Re: best shocks between Axial and Traxxas The Traxxas GTS shocks are for sure better than those on the Capra. |
Re: best shocks between Axial and Traxxas I would have to agree the Traxxas TRX4 GTS shocks are high quality and leak free compared to some of the other shocks out there. The Traxxas Big Bore shocks are also excelent shocks available in 90mm, 100mm and 110mm. |
Re: best shocks between Axial and Traxxas Agreed - also, if you find Element RC shocks they are excellent - I can't personally tell which I prefer between them and those from the TRX-4. |
Re: best shocks between Axial and Traxxas thank you for your answers "thumbsup" |
Re: best shocks between Axial and Traxxas The aluminum body big bores with Dravtech springs are hard to beat. I tend to run Dravtech shocks on all my builds but the aluminum body Traxxas BB is hard to beat. I like the sub 90mm set up. Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk |
Re: best shocks between Axial and Traxxas Another possible option? I have NO idea how they perform - too new - but Yeah Racing has a decent looking new shock coming out - decent priced, too... Desert Cobra Dual Spring Damper: https://www.yeahracing.com/blog/Dese...-Spring-Damper RCMart has 'em for less than $26 a pair, hopefully retailers with US warehouses will get them soon. https://www.yeahracing.com/image/cac...-1000x1000.jpg |
Re: best shocks between Axial and Traxxas I don't know about others...but, for me, Yeah Racing parts have been "hit & miss". Machined parts, in & of themselves, have been very good, but 'mechanical' parts (ie. those involving movement, such as a servo saver) have been "problematic". When it comes to shock, Traxxas is almost always my primary go-to (GTS, GTR). At the same time, the Element Enduro shocks are also very good...almost as good as the GTS shocks. ~ More peace, love, laughter, & kindness would make the world a MUCH better place |
Re: best shocks between Axial and Traxxas Gmade RSDs are nice too....and not too expensive"thumbsup" |
Re: best shocks between Axial and Traxxas It ultimately depends on personal preference and the specific use case of the shocks. Both Traxxas TRX-4 shocks and Axial SCX10-3 shocks have their own pros and cons. The TRX-4 shocks have a reputation for being durable and reliable, while the SCX10-3 shocks are known for their adjustability and versatility. It's recommended to do some research on both options and consider your specific needs before making a decision. |
Re: best shocks between Axial and Traxxas shocks are shocks i have a trx4 here thats the shocks stick really bad about the same as the redcat everest 10 shocks and they are all leaking it was a rtr and they were never touched and he dident say fix them so they are as they were these days i buy the cheapest bestlooking set i can fund and just use a dab of greese inside to give some friction and some lubrication |
Re: best shocks between Axial and Traxxas Regarding which one leaks worse, the Axial units tend to leak first before Traxxas shocks do. Both brands operate smoothly until they wear down. Element makes excellent "out of the box" shocks. But, from my experience GMade's provided or "DIY" shocks have the best performance over a more extended period of use. |

I’ve definitely had the sticking issue with trx shocks, I have found a rebuild kit that includes thinner white x ring spacers that solves that issue. TRA2362 includes x rings and spacers for $2.50 Some people just slightly loosen the lower x ring caps until it goes away. Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk |

The Element Enduro shocks rank right up there too as being the best for the price. Super smooth and all that I own are leak free. Of course Dravtech have always been top notch and are worth every dollar! |
Re: best shocks between Axial and Traxxas Traxas big bore shocks…I haven’t had a set leak yet "thumbsup" |
Re: best shocks between Axial and Traxxas Did Axial finally produce a halfway decent set of shocks? |

Knock on wood, they feel pretty smooth and haven't puked out all of their oils! |
Re: best shocks between Axial and Traxxas I have a TRX4 that is 2 years old and probably has 350+ miles on it. Stock unopened shocks. Just after this last outing do the shocks need some attention. I was impressed by that... Thanks Ross |
