shocks

Okay, y'all, so I was bored and was just looking at my slash 4x4 wondering how I could make it better without dumping a bunch of money into it, and I had this idea (which would cost a bunch of money). So y'all know how you don't want your suspension so hard that it bounces around, and you don't...

Hi everyone. I've done my best to find this bit of information but have came up empty. I have a HPI Trophy 3.5 and parts are becoming rare to nonexistent after they discontinued the buggy. Here's my questions Do shocks have a standard size for the mounting holes or will they only fit specific...

My shocks keep coming apart on my tmaxx

I know i can't be the only one with these anymore and trying to search online has been excruciating to search for as they have the same "name" as the newer ones released for the slash, (i guess they aren't really that "new"). so with some research and intense squinting at over-zoomed pixelated...

How do you adjust the shock to run over a rough grass covered lawn. Should the shocks be stiff?

Tekno has just announced a set of Tekno shock standoffs, that when used with the Tekno shock bushings (TKR8730), allow the shock only to pivot between the standoff and the bushing which in turn moves the wear surface to the bushing itself and increasing the life of the cap. Continue Reading

I've been reading up on this and since there were no threads under suspension (sorry if it's covered elsewhere) thought this would be a good place to start since it can make a massive difference to how the car drives. I understand the the softer it is the quicker it'll turn in however this also...

Looking to buy a set of Slash GTR shocks. Must be in great shape.

Well I got my revo and the front shocks seem perfect but the rear feel like they need shock oil they are all stock but what weight oil should I use for the rear?

I was wondering if I could combine my much thicker diff fluid with my lower shock fluids to try to achieve the weight I need. the fluids I am using are both from associated. basically I bought 4 bottles, 2 of 35 and 2 of 30wt shock oil, and I need some oil in the range of 50-80 weight for some...

Hello, I'm kinda new to the RC car hobby. Can anyone give me any idea of what weight shock oil to use in a Losi XXX-NT? I'm thinking 30Wt. or 40Wt or should i go less. but I don't know. I like to drive it on road and off road, more on road and i like to do a lot of big air jumps. Also I'm...

I have a Slash 4x4 and was wondering how much shock oil to put in them. Thanks

The HPI Big Bore shocks arrived today. They'll be going on a Savvy brushless conversion with the extended FLM alloy TVPs. I need some recommendations for which weight oil I should run in the front and in the rear. I'm thinking heavy in the rear to keep it from squatting too much, and lighter...

Can somebody explain? What changing a spring weight does to handling vs. changing shock oil? If I change the oil weight do I need to change the piston size? Should the front shock oil be heavier than the back? What about the spring weight in that situation? What effect does changing the shock...
