Great fitment, no issues at all in fitting these to the stock shock cartridge. Just wish this part was included stock since the plastic one's that came with the Tekno kit cracked while fitting it on for the first time. Don't know how necessary they are or if there are any weight savings attached but definitely great upgrade if you crack the stock part.
After several years the stock plastic part cracked on 2 of my 4 shocks and completely failed on 1 of them, so I bought these to replace them. Definitely a very nice upgrade and I wish I had replaced them sooner.
Much better fitment than the plastic. Strongly recommended to prevent leakage and low maintenance !
This is a must-have upgrade for Tekno shocks. The fitment is so much better than the plastic that it prevents leakage.
While these were included with my ET48.3, they werent with the SCT410.3, so I purchased them as well as the aluminum threaded spring adjusters, the vented shock caps and the delrin shock shaft guides and delrin pistons. Same parts as I have on the truggy and they are the smoothest and leak free shocks I've ever had and wanted the same for my SCT. Excellent quality and fit and finish as usual with Tekno parts... Super satisfied!
All five reviewers rate the aluminum shock cartridge cap set 5/5 and report good fitment compared with the stock plastic caps. Reviewers say the plastic part cracked or failed in use, either during first fitting or after several years, and the aluminum set is seen as a replacement for that weakness. Two reviewers credit it with preventing leakage and reducing maintenance. One reviewer notes the set was not included with the SCT410.3 and was bought separately, and another is unsure how necessary the upgrade is or whether it saves weight. Reviews are few and uniformly positive, and the reviewers do not describe any drawbacks.
