What makes these shocks more durable than stock plastic units?

The aluminium bodies resist cracking and compressive damage better than plastic, and hardened shafts reduce bending and wear under heavy loads.

How should I set up oil and springs for technical crawling?

Start with medium weight oil and progressive springs, then fine tune oil viscosity and preload to control pitch and maximise tyre contact on slow lines.

Are service parts available for rebuilds?

Seals, o-rings and pistons are standard wear parts; keep spares on hand to maintain performance over time.
