I agree with Doug and doupt they do anything for the handling of a 2WD buggy. Well, eccept for the Cougar SV maybe as the original 'thin-ish' Schuey shocks introduced with the CAT SX are shite in terms of volume.
I do not see the point why Kyosho wants to change to a big-bore design other than making money with aftermarket parts. The original Kyosho's are top-notch in my opinion and 'look' a bit bigger than the average AE or Losi shock (12 mm each) with their 12.5 mm bodies. Durango (12 mm) come with big-bores very soon Yokomo allready have them. With the heavier 4WD they possibly make sense if the original design is on the edge now like Schumacher or maybe Yokomo.
Well, we'll see.
