Restore Handling on Older T Series Cars

Owners of older XRAY T Series models will find the XRAY 308073 Composite Set of Shims useful for dialling in suspension feel. Intended for aluminium shock bodies, these shims let you fine-tune internal clearances so the car tracks truer through corners and over bumps.

Why Use Composite Shims in Aluminium Shock Assemblies?

Composite material gives a balance of wear resistance and low mass, so you get durable contact surfaces without adding unnecessary weight. That translates to steadier damping and less internal abrasion on aluminium components over repeated running sessions.

Compatibility with Older T Series Parts

The dimensions are matched to older T Series components, enabling a seamless fit on vintage cars. The XRAY 308073 set is a straightforward way to refresh your shocks and regain consistent ride quality without replacing the whole shock unit.
Remark :
Due to limited stock availability, please notice that some XRAY items may have to order from the factory and the ready time is around 4-6 weeks. Customer purchases the item is assumed to accept the waiting time which allows us to order directly from the manufacturer if the item is out of our warehouse.

Can I use these shims with coated shock shafts?

Yes, they work with coated or stainless shafts as long as the internal shock geometry matches. The shims mainly sit between cap and piston or spacer areas and do not interact with shaft coating.

Do shims affect oil choice or volume?

Shims change mechanical clearance rather than hydraulic properties, but you should retest oil weight and bleed settings after shim changes to tune damping response.

Are these a good option for club racing cars?

Absolutely. For drivers running older T Series kits at club events, these shims are a low-cost way to regain predictable shock action and reduce midrace setup drift.
