Default Shocks.... droooool

These are the new HL shocks from Tamiya, with a lower shock seal cartridge, threaded adjustment, Nitride shock shafts with pistons of 1.3mm front and 1.4mm rear. The quality is ace, the less can be said about the o-rings, and as soon as Nortech can, some tasty whitties will be going in there!!



Did anyone get tapered pistons in there's??



Assembly is pretty simple (as long as you read the manual... ), I always grease the shock shafts before putting them through the o-rings. I followed the manual, filled, pumped, full to 1mm below the top, cap on, sorted easy. Kit comes with Red rear springs and new black front springs.
