Gmade R1 Red Shock Set - R1-80309-RD by Jazrider  [R1-80309-RD]

Red alloy shock upgrade for scale R1

The R1-80309-RD red alloy shock set is an RC replacement designed for the Gmade R1 platform. The kit offers a metal-bodied alternative to lighter plastic dampers while maintaining the factory mounting pattern and serviceable design common to scale rock buggies.

These shocks provide three primary benefits: a firmer seating point for springs, consistent oil damping for repeatable rebound and compression, and improved wear resistance during trail use. The model listing identifies Gmade R1 compatibility only; other chassis should be checked for fit.

Installing the shocks follows standard rebuild steps. Remove the original shocks from lower and upper mounts, move or replace springs as required, mount the alloy bodies and check that the piston travels freely and seals seat correctly. After installation, set ride height and verify smooth suspension movement through the full range.

Setup recommendations focus on adjustable settings. Try a selection of shock oils to dial damping, change spring preload to alter ride height and initial stiffness, and test different mounting positions if available. Keeping seals and O-rings maintained will help retain consistent damping performance.

Offered as a scale-oriented alloy upgrade, this shock set gives Gmade R1 owners a metal-bodied option for consistent damping and improved service life during regular off-road use.
