Oh great, here's another brilliant thread from the wizz kid.
Here's my advise. Do some research, find what you want and go buy it. Since you don't even have anything yet, why do you need to know about swapping parts from one truck you don't have to another one you don't have. There's a reason the stock shocks are on that one. Maybe it's because they work well.
Go get one. Then figure out what you don't like about it.
Better still, go to Radio Shack and check out their R/C trucks and then join a Toys 'r Us forum.

A few words of wisdom from someone who usually just sits and watches.
1. You have GOT to use punctuation, dude. Seriously. Whether you're 10 or 100. Make friends with the period (.) at least. There are times when I have no clue what you're trying to ask or trying to say in your posts. Believe me, the more intelligible your posts, the better chance you have at getting coherent, useful answers.
2. You are killing yourself here. I have been reading your threads and you are all over the map. You are way too worried about things that you dont' need to be worrying about. The bottom line is that there are a lot of monster trucks out there. They all have strengths and weaknesses. You are not going to find the perfect truck. That's just the way it is. My advice? Just pick one. Please!!! I own a Maxx 1st generation and I just beat the tar out of it at the East Coast Bash. It held up fine. However, the majority were driving Savages. And if I were to buy a truck now, the Savage would be my choice. If you are liking the looks of the Monster Pirate, go for it. I watched one run this weekend and the suspension was fine. You don't need waste your time right now thinking about what you need to do to make it better. If that's what you want, get it. These trucks run fine right out of the box.
You are causing yourself and us more headaches than are needed. The time has come for you to make your choice. Let's make it easy. How much $$$ do you have to spend? Once we know your budget, we can make a much better recommendation.
And secondly, once you do buy your truck, feel free to ask advice of anyone here. We all have tons of experience. BUT...be respectful. I have been a memeber of this forum since the third day it was open. You will not find a nicer group of people to help you. And I can guarantee if you approach each of your questions in a kind and courteous manner (and use punctuation so that we know exactly what you're asking), someone here will be happy to give you a good, thorough answer.
Until then, you have a nice day.

Well, Pro-line used to make a suspension conversion kit that was similar to the Maxx. But the discontinued it. UE now have one that looks similar and a lot of Ofna MP racers use - but we are talking some major bucks for that conversion. Start out simple with whatever truck you go with, learn it and then look for ways to better tailor it to your driving/racing needs.
