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 cars?
The Trophy Buggy Shock lengths are 97mm/112mm, if shocks generally mount to most vehicles do I need to look for exactly 97mm/ and 112mm? Or could I use 100mm/114mm shocks, kind of staying 2÷3mm range within the original size?
I'm sure the answer is out there however I've not found it so it's just time to ask.
I do have a engine swap/upgrade question. The trophy is a .21cc, would any .21cc engine made for a buggy mount? I know there's the engine subforum for this but for time sake i have to toss it in.
Thank you!
