4-Pack RC Car Shock Absorbers Metal Shocks Damper Compatible with MJX Hyper Go 16207 16208 16209 16210 H16BM H16GT H16DR 1/16 Scale RC Car Upgrades Part

Really poor quality. No oil in the shocks what so ever..Oil added and shocks broke with in 10 minutes of lite use.Would not reccomend these items.

I have used these on my MJX Hyper Go 16208 and they fit perfectly and price to be a valuable upgrade. They are well built and don't leak when oil is in them, which is always a bonus. They provide a nice amount of suspension travel and can be tuned by turning the adjuster. The price is reasonable and buying from Amazon saves you weeks of waiting for spares to arrive from China.

These are very much the typical no-name shocks you can buy from dozens if not hundreds of brands locally and via import. They won’t give name-brand shocks that cost 4+ times the amount a run for their money, but they’re very much fine and good enough for a lot of people at the current asking price.At full compression these shocks measure at roughly 55mm and at full extension they’re about 68mm from centre to centre of the mounting points. I’m not sure why the seller has just decided not to share the measurements of the shocks, it’s far more helpful than vague images and statements of a few compatible RC car models.They are reasonably well made with no obvious issues right out of the sealed ESD-safe bag they were heat-sealed into on arrival. All four shocks are perfectly airtight and all the parts thread easily due to the cleanly cut threads throughout. Some parts arrived a little loose, but anyone buying shocks should be at the very least checking everything is tight. Or even breaking them down as far as is reasonable and applying a decent threadlocker, especially if you’re going to be thrashing on them.To my surprise these shocks actually arrived partially filled with a fairly light oil, presumably a low weight silicone based one, though I can’t really tell with certainty. It’s a little odd that they’ve chosen not only to fill these with oil, but also to stop at around halfway up the shock. Which ultimately leaves them underfilled, and you need to top them up to a higher level where the rod can still fully compress (without the spring) and rebound about a quarter from full compression. So I'd strongly recommend removing the mystery oil, cleaning them out and then topping it up with the appropriate quantity of the right weight oil for your needs.The price point of £11.99 isn’t amazing or terrible value for money, though it is roughly four or five quid more expensive than buying the same generic 70mm set from China after shipping and VAT are added. So if you’re alright with the mark-up and need shocks of this size on short notice, this is a viable option as long as you’re not expecting name-brand quality at a fraction of the cost.
