RC4WD Old Man Emu Nitrocharger 80mm – Heavy-Duty Nitro Shocks for Off-Road RC Vehicles
The RC4WD Old Man Emu Nitrocharger 80mm is a high-performance nitro shock absorber designed for demanding off-road RC vehicles. Built by ARB, a recognised name in 4WD and off-road components, these shocks deliver consistent damping under extreme conditions.
80mm body length provides extended stroke for superior absorption of large bumps and landings
Nitro-charged fluid delivers fade-free performance even under sustained heavy use
Sport-grade valving tuned for RC off-road driving on rough terrain and high-speed runs
Compatible with a wide range of RC vehicles in the RC4WD and ARB accessory ecosystem
Das zeichnet den RC4WD Old Man Emu Nitrocharger aus
Unlike standard coil-over shocks, the Nitrocharger uses a nitrogen-charged design that maintains uniform pressure throughout the stroke. This eliminates fade during long runs and ensures predictable handling whether navigating rock gardens or high-speed dirt tracks.

These shocks are built for RC enthusiasts who push their vehicles to the limit — whether competing in off-road races, running technical rock-crawling setups, or simply upgrading a daily-driver RC truck for more resilient on-road and off-road performance.
