The GPM front L-shape spring damper is a CNC-conscious aftermarket replacement intended for TRAXXAS UNLIMITED DESERT RACER style chassis and other vehicles that match the 135mm front dimension. It is designed to control vertical wheel travel, manage frictional losses and dissipate impact energy to maintain chassis balance on uneven terrain.
Key engineering changes versus common stock units include a coil spring wire increase from 1.8mm to 2mm to broaden available spring rates while preserving fitment for the original spring, an enlarged damper shaft dimension raised from 3.5mm to 5mm to improve column stiffness, and an aluminium-machined damper body with a sealed spring retainer to limit oil leakage. The integrated L-shape piggyback reservoir increases oil travel length to stabilise damping response across varied stroke speeds.
For precise upgrade work on TRAXXAS UNLIMITED DESERT RACER platforms, these aluminium L-shape front dampers focus on increased structural rigidity and improved oil retention to support repeatable damping characteristics and consistent tuning results.
