Team Associated ASC81453 16mm Shock Bladders Stiff

Stiff shock bladders add another tuning lever to the 16mm big bore shocks on your Associated buggy or truggy. A firmer bladder resists deflection as oil volume changes, building more progressive resistance deep in the stroke, which makes this set a strong choice for tracks with big jumps and hard landings where you want extra bottoming resistance without changing oil weight or pistons.

Fitment covers the RC8B3, RC8B3e, RC8T3, RC8T3e, RC8B3.1, RC8B3.1e, RC8T3.1, RC8T3.1e, RC8B3.2, RC8B3.2e, RC8T3.2, RC8T3.2e, RC8B4, RC8B4e, RC8T4, RC8T4e, RC8B4.1, RC8B4.1e, RC8B4.2 EURO, RC8B4.2e, RC8T4.2, and RC8T4.2e.

They drop into your existing shock caps in place of the standard bladders, so this is a bolt in tuning option rather than a modification. Bladders are a wear item that harden and tear over time, so keeping a stiff set alongside your standard ones lets you adapt the setup to changing track conditions across a race day.
