Default Blue AE shock collars?

I have seen on the awesome RHR report that Craggey and Lee Martin are running some nice blue shock collars.

I have one set of Trinity blue collars on my B4 but fancy a set for the B44

Are these an AE part?

Are they Trishbits parts?

Do losi collars have the same thread/fit AE shocks?

They're Yokomo shocks on most of the AE team cars, so not sure if you can shoe-horn the Yok shock collars onto AE shocks??

Yeah these are Yokomo dampers that the team are using. Apparently the latest AE dampers spit out their seals too easily - possibly a manufacturing fault. I beleive they're waiting for new versions.

"latest AE dampers"
Would that be a new shock from AE, or just the new batch of the current AE shocks??

And which Yoke are they taking the shocks from??

The "latest" Jimmy referred to are just a recent batch from AE. They seem to pop the seals on heavy landings.

As for the Yok shocks, I'm pretty sure they're straight from the B-Max.

I doubt it as the yok the shocks are metric and the ae ones are imperial.
