TRAXXAS 1/5 X-Maxx & X-Monster 7075 Alloy Shock Cap by GPM GPM  [GPM]

7075 alloy shock cap overview

This 7075 alloy shock cap is an RC-scale damper accessory intended for front or rear use on compatible TRAXXAS chassis. It replaces the standard shock cap with a light, high-tensile 7075 aluminium body and an integrated shock-seal cap designed to limit leak paths and maintain spring preload stability during aggressive runs.

Designed as an L-shape piggy back unit with a built-in piston spring, the cap provides a way to tune rebound behavior without changing the internal shock piston, and it is specified for use on non-oil-filled shock configurations. Adjustment is performed via the red screw at the base of the negative pressure cylinder to vary spring hardness and fine-tune rebound response.

Installation is straightforward for technicians familiar with stock dampers, and the part suits both original factory shocks and GPM shock bodies where listed compatibility applies. The component is strictly for RC models and is used to refine handling balance, reduce friction-induced chatter, and manage pressure during compression and rebound cycles.

As an aftermarket upgrade for compatible TRAXXAS models, this 7075 alloy shock cap is intended to offer a durable, tunable alternative to stock caps for hobbyists focused on suspension balance and rebound control.
