A smoother shaft also means the piston moves with less stiction, so the suspension reacts to small chatter bumps instead of skipping across them.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eEach shaft threads into the shock rod end and passes through the shock cartridge seals, so any nick or bend in the shaft lets oil past the seal and changes the damping on that corner. Swapping in fresh shafts is the fastest way to bring worn shocks back to consistent performance without replacing the entire shock body. These are the correct length for the matching shock position on the RC8T4 series and install using the standard shock rebuild procedure with your existing pistons, seals, and rod ends.\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Associated","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":56089204949314,"sku":"ASC81608","price":15.29,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":false}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0819\/5063\/8402\/files\/81608_md__79790.1725450516.jpg?v=1788542405","url":"https:\/\/www.powerhobby.com\/products\/team-associated-asc81608-tin-shock-shafts-35-5mm","provider":"PowerHobby","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
