hth

Cool, we'll see what turns up. Plan is to take the spare shocks, and just sell the car straight on without taking anything off it.

True but want to get shot of the car easily. I paid £65 for the car, shocks and spares.

I thought it was a good find too :) Just hope it's not a lemon...

Anyone want a XXX CR ;)

Mike Hudson 11-05-2009 09:59 PM

Sorry I assume shocks will still be fine?

Mike Hudson 11-05-2009 10:12 PM

yep the xxx4 and xxxcr have the same shocks :) just the xx4 that has the longer rear bodies and shafts

jono83 11-05-2009 10:19 PM

Yeah will be fine

mikeyscott 12-05-2009 09:54 AM

Cool :)

Ordered the needed bits from DMS. The base of the shocks, are they like the AE ones where the screw goes through etc.

Anyone got any pics of the shocks on a B4? I assume I can download the manual from the Losi site..

What bolts do people use for securing the shocks

Mike Hudson 14-05-2009 05:50 PM

the same ones you use for the ae shocks although you may need slightly longer screws for the shock towers as the bushings that the shocks sit on are abit longer I think

mikeyscott 16-05-2009 07:36 PM

Any recommendations for screws so I can order them up :)

jono83 16-05-2009 07:49 PM

For the tops or bottom of the shocks?
for the bottoms i would use some nortech shock bottom retaining screws and i think i use 3/4inch ones for the tops all 4-40 btw

mikeyscott 16-05-2009 08:20 PM

Got a link for Nortech?

The spare shocks that arrived with the XXX4 are the non threaded version, are the parts cross compatible?

I bought the shorter shafter and threaded body from DMS, but now thinking of ordering the threaded body for the front.
