thanks i found a set of 8 on ebay for 20 $. they are prefilled with 40 wt and springs all ready to go

No. They won't. They are way too long , you won't get full compression on landing and the arms will droop too far when in the air causing excess stress on the hinge pins, sliders and slider knuckles.

Savage shock extended length: 6.69 inches
Maxx shock extended Length: 4.25 inches

Savage shocks are over 2 inches longer when uncompressed.

They would fit... but they don't look like they are made very well.

Get yourself some Ofna 1/8 scale buggy springs (a four shock setup) and you'll be glad you did. It will just do everything better, handling, jumping, everything.

I got those shocks on my t-maxx and they are great. I am jumping huge 15-20ft in air and having no probems what-so-ever. When I first bought them, I agree they look cheapily made, but alot of my friends have been running them for awhile with no problems. And they are nice since you dont have to worry about shims anymore!!!

For $15 shipped it's kinda worth the gamble IMO. If all else fails get yourself a set of Traxxas Big Bore shocks. Everybody who's ever had them loves them, including myself.. and I've been through my share of TMaxx shocks.

What shocks are those?

 

[cheeseball01]

They are Ofna 1/8 scale buggy shocks. I can't remember the exact model number though. They work awesome.

 

[insaneatvs]

they look so beefy...I see you only need 4 instead of 8

 

[ajames942]

Imagine it with 8 lol
