Reservoir-style aluminum shock for Axial Wraith

This RC piggyback shock is developed for Axial Racing Wraith models and like 1/10 scale rock crawlers. The aluminum body and external reservoir increase oil volume and assist heat management, which helps the suspension maintain consistent damping during long or repeated runs.

Use this part to replace worn stock shocks or when you want a firmer, more stable damping baseline for crawling. Before fitting, confirm your chassis eyelet spacing and mounting type; the unit is supplied in gunmetal finish.

For tuning, the piggyback acts as a stability aid: higher fluid capacity helps sustain damping characteristics across repeated compressions, while oil selection and springs remain the main adjustments for ride height and dynamic response.

Specifications

  • Item: Axial Racing Wraith Aluminum Piggyback Shock (gunmetal)
  • Material: Aluminum
  • Model Number: AW-23002-GU
  • Compatibility: Axial Racing Wraith

A practical upgrade to improve damping consistency for scale crawling and trail driving; tune springs and oil to suit vehicle mass and driving style.

Is extra drilling or modification required to fit these shocks?

They are designed to match Axial Racing Wraith dimensions, but verify shock eyelet spacing and mounting type on your chassis; minor adjustments may be needed for non-standard builds.

What are the expected gains from switching to a piggyback?

Expect improved thermal handling and more consistent damping under repeated runs, which can translate to steadier handling on long trail drives.

How often should I service these shocks?

Service frequency depends on use; for regular trail driving inspect seals and replace oil at intervals suited to run length and environment to preserve performance.

Can I mix these with standard stock shocks on the same vehicle?

Mixing piggyback and standard shocks can lead to uneven damping behavior; for consistent performance, use matched shock types and tune oil and springs across all corners.
