Frequently Asked Questions - XD Piggyback RC4WD
What vehicles are compatible with the RC4WD XD Piggyback shocks?
These shocks are designed for 1/10 scale RC crawlers and trucks. They fit most standard shock mounting points with eyelet ends. Check your vehicle's shock length and mounting hardware before purchase.
What oil weight should I use?
Recommended oil weight is 30-40 wt silicone oil. For lighter vehicles or softer damping, use 30 wt; for heavier setups, use 40 wt. Adjust according to your driving conditions.
How do I install the shocks?
Remove old shocks, mount the XD Piggyback using the included ball ends and hardware. Ensure the piggyback reservoir is oriented correctly (usually facing outward). Fill with oil and cycle the shock to remove air.
Do these shocks come filled with oil?
No, they are shipped dry. You need to fill them with silicone oil of your choice, typically 30-40 wt.
What is the shock length and stroke?
The overall length is approximately 100mm with a stroke of about 30mm. Exact measurements may vary slightly; refer to the product packaging.
Are the shocks rebuildable?
Yes, they are fully rebuildable. You can replace seals, o-rings, and change oil. This extends the lifespan of the shocks.
What tools are needed for installation?
You will need basic tools: hex wrenches (2mm, 2.5mm), a small flathead screwdriver for oil filling, and possibly pliers for spring adjustment.
How do I adjust the spring preload?
Use the included spring preload clips or collars. Moving the clip down increases preload (stiffer), moving it up decreases preload (softer). Adjust in small increments.
Can I use these shocks for racing?
These are high-quality damping shocks suitable for trail running, crawling, and mild racing. For competitive racing, you may want more adjustable shocks, but they perform well in most conditions.
What is the warranty on these shocks?
RC4WD typically offers a 30-day warranty against manufacturing defects. Keep your receipt and contact RC4WD support for claims.
