Yeah I'll be drawing them up so I can just rattle em off when needed

Ok mate lovely job I'll pm you when they're ready

cheers mucka

Not sure, any rubbing against the side of the shock body could cause them to pick up or leave tiny fleck's floating about in the oil

Some 1/8th scale big bores (tapered) fresh off the machine

how you getting on with the Durango big bores?

I was fortunate enough to be sent some Kyosho BB pistons to try,

I must say they look fantastic, the machining is as good as Kit, If not better.
They fit like a glove!

Also they are very easy to work with & drill.

I have built them up and they feel really smooth on the bench,
Il be testing them over the week.

I will give some more feedback when I've raced the car, although I foresee no issues!!

Thanks!!

Ok after some fighting with my PC I finally managed to get this picture up.

Do you believe this is possible to not only make the piston but also cut out the holes?

The below are traxxas TRX1 shock pistons alongside one associated piston. I would like to have the exact hole sizes from the traxxas pistons cut out on a blank Associated (not big bore) shock piston

Im after one hole set of four, a two hole set of four and three hole set of four. Please let me know if this is possible. Thanks.

Yes mate they are possible to make but I will have to either have one to copy or a good accurate drawing of what you want also may take a while for me to get onto a machine with a C axis to mill the slots

Hello mate,

What the price be on some tapered pistons to fit the losi 1/8scale shocks??

Cheers Jay

Hi, do you have template for ghea style 12mm pistons?

Hi mate no I don't, if you can send me one ill make some

I was going to buy the set of ghea magic ones but they are 65 quid... I dont have any.

Is this enough info?

Diameter 11.95mm
hole size 3.0 MM
thickness 2.5mm

the tapered part starts from approximately 3mm from outside ege of centre hole and goes down to the edge of the piston at a thcikness of 1.25mm

I'd like these with 3x 1.3 mm holes and 4x 1.3mm holes 4 of each.

Hows that?

Any news on my pistons?:thumbsup:

Any luck with my pistons?

Any news on my pistons yet? Please let me know. Cheers

John,

Pmd you. Cheers

Great pistons, good service, thanks John.

John, you have a PM

PM'd about pistons but not heard anything yet?

Hi John
You have PM.
Cheers

Good luck! First batch of pistons came fine, when I PM'd for a repeat order it was accepted so I sent a pair of pistons for Gixxer to copy and even a SAE, got neither my order or my originals back, PM'd and PM'd and PM'd and GAVE UP!!!!!

Same here, I want my originals back so I can get machined elsewhere but no reply either
