The Evo_H Shock Absorber: Suspension Component Designed for the Demands of Raid
Raid competition cars subject their chassis to very different stresses compared to other disciplines: uneven surfaces, sudden load changes, and the need to maintain wheel-to-ground contact at all times. The Evo_H Shock Absorber (ref. CXM154) meets these demands with a design focused on consistency and facilitating preparation work.
Function and Performance
A well-specified shock absorber is the bridge between suspension behaviour and the actual performance of the car. The Evo_H works to dissipate impact energy and return the wheel to the ground in a controlled manner, reducing unwanted rebounds that penalise traction and steering on Raid sections.
Supplied in Pairs
The Evo_H Shock Absorber is sold in pairs. This allows for the simultaneous replacement or adjustment of both points on the same axle, ensuring a symmetrical response and avoiding imbalances in the car's behaviour.
Installation and Preparation
To get the most out of the Evo_H, it is recommended to:
- Always replace both shock absorbers on the axle at the same time to maintain suspension balance.
- Check the condition of the mounting points before installation.
- Adjust the preload according to the weight of the car and the type of terrain on which it will compete or run.
Ideal for…
This shock absorber is the right choice for those preparing or maintaining Raid cars and looking for a specific component to replace or enhance the stock setup. Suitable for both club competition use and running on dirt or mixed circuits.
Frequently Asked Questions
Is the Evo_H Shock Absorber CXM154 sold individually or in pairs?
It is sold in pairs, which facilitates the complete and uniform replacement of an axle.
What type of car is it intended for?
It is specifically designed for Raid cars, a discipline that demands suspension components capable of absorbing impacts and uneven terrain repeatedly.
Can I install just one if the other shock absorber is in good condition?
Technically it is possible, but it is not advisable. Installing a new shock absorber alongside a worn one creates response differences between the two sides of the axle, which can negatively affect the car's behaviour.
Are special tools needed for installation?
The installation does not require unusual tools, although it is advisable to have basic preparation tools to respect the torque settings of the mounting points and avoid damaging the fixings.
The Evo_H shock absorber (ref. CXM154) is a purpose-built suspension component for Raid RC or scale competition cars, sold in pairs to ensure balanced axle setup. Designed to absorb repeated impacts on mixed and off-road terrain, it is an essential replacement or upgrade part for club competitors and serious hobbyists looking to maintain consistent handling and traction.
