JAZRIDER R1-80309-RD Red Alloy Shock Set for Gmade R1 Rock Buggy  [R1-80309-RD]

Red alloy shock upgrade for scale buggy

The JAZRIDER R1-80309-RD Red Alloy Shock Set is an RC-scale replacement shock package presented for use with the Gmade R1 platform. Built as a direct-hop-up component, the set targets riders who want a metal-bodied alternative to stock plastic or simple dampers while retaining standard mounting layout and serviceability typical of scale rock buggies.

These shocks serve three practical roles: provide a firmer mounting point for springs, allow consistent oil-based damping for repeatable rebound and compression, and resist wear from repeated trail use. Because the product name specifies Gmade R1, no other chassis compatibility is implied.

Installation is straightforward for technicians familiar with shock removal and rebuilds. Remove the original shock assembly from the lower mount and top cap, transfer or replace springs as desired, then install the alloy body while checking for smooth piston travel and proper seal seating. After assembly, verify ride height and check for binding through full suspension travel before running.

Tuning guidance focuses on setup variables rather than fixed values. Try a range of shock oil viscosities to adjust damping response, alter spring preload to change ride height and initial stiffness, and experiment with mounting positions if the chassis allows different eyelet placements. Regular inspection of seals and O-rings preserves damping consistency and extends service intervals.

Designed as a scale-focused alloy upgrade, this shock set provides a metal-bodied option for owners of the Gmade R1 who require consistent damping behavior and increased component longevity under typical off-road use.
