Yokomo Big Bore Shocks
 

I have the B-Max champ pack shocks and I have found that they are good and leak very little. The big bore shocks look really good and may provide certain advantages over the std shocks eg possibly help on really bumpy tracks. The price of the big bores from Race and drift, japan, looks quite promising, but is it worth the outlay? Opinions welcome.

yes they are woth every penny and are way smoother than the champ pack shocks as well as the standard ones! go for it and you will see the diff as soon as you put them on! good luck

I'll second that, really smooth and found the quality to be top notch have ran them for a few meetings now and no leaks:thumbsup:

I'm going to wait til kyosho release their big bores, as the K shocks cannot be matched

Big bores
 

If I do buy the big bores, what oil and what springs are reccommended fro indoor carpet and outdoor bumpy astro?

Outdoor bumpy astro i ran:
black front spring 35WT oil
super soft green rear spring 30WT oil
Kit pistons.

From when i ran them they are a deffinate noticable improvement.

:thumbsup:

Make sure you run it this weekend then buddy!! A car you know ;)

Are you running the "out of box" pistonS? or is it a new "kit pistons"?

They were the black and white pistons supplied with the shocks when bought seperately. I will check what they actually are.

Are there any shops in the UK that stocks the big bore shocks or springs?

rc race and drift japan is the mecca for yoko parts and acessories!

MK Racing
 

I have just seen that MK Racing have the big bore shocks in stock. Does anybody know if they plan to stock the springs aswell?

Big bore set up
 

So with big bore shocks on, do people run extra weight on their cars, and do people run the shocks on the inner or outer ball on the wishbones?
