Default possible to buy complete shocks?

Does anyone know if you can buy complete yokomo shocks (the alu versions from the Bmax - not big bore) or do you have to order each part individually? I'm having real trouble finding this info, even the individual part numbers.

kind regards,

wouter

Hello Icecream-dude

The big-bores are not so good on the B4 according to Joern. His B4 looked really good with the standard yokomo shocks though!

You guys coming to Langenfeld on 18.10.??? Online anmelding is up on http://www.amc-langenfeld.de/nennen/nennformular.html

I bought a bmax, and put the shocks on my B4. I like them a lot! So now just looking for a second set.

The belgians will be in langenfeld, but not me probably. Gonna try to take a little break from racing this winter!

we'll see how long it takes before the urge to race kicks in again :-) I checked the dates, and the first 2 races I couldn't come anyway. The one in january I will race for sure, since the week after that it's the petit-rc race in england, so that's a good practise!

Hi,

Anyone knows where to find these shocks? I can find some shops who sell the champions pack, but it's always out of stock. But I can't find any shops who sell the BM-1L or BM-1S parts.

Any help appreciated!

thanks

Flip, these guys can order and ship any yokomo parts.
http://www.rc-race-and-drift-japan.com/

Although I haven't dealt with them in the past, I just ordered a B-max4 FT and some parts from them. Tim is very nice, fast and gives good service (so far). Prices are good too. As I said, I can't vouch for them yet(haven't received the order yet), but so far so good.

Good luck finding your shocks!

Concerning BM-1L and BM-1S shocks:
Is there a spring rate chart available.

I highly appreciate your comments and experience.

Thanks for all suggestions!

Spring chart chart is not available. Only a small paper incuded with the order of the springs from soft to hard...

I measured them myself, to compare them with losi springs. Altough not exact, it gives a good idea of how they relate to each other. I have this at home, will post later!
