X6 shocks

[mr emily]

Hopefully the postman will drop an X6 through my letterbox tomorrow, which losi shocks do I need for it? shock body lenghths and rod lengths.

[mattym0310]

these are the ones I think..

LOSA5055LOSA5055 Threaded Shock Body Set .9" x1
LOSA5054LOSA5054 Threaded Shock Body Set .6" x1
LOSA5064LOSA5064 Shock Shaft,1.0" Ti-Nitride x2
LOSA5060LOSA5060 Shock Shaft,.6" Ti-Nitride x2

[YoungChazz]

You'll likely want four 5015 cartridges, one 5079 ends & cups, one 5013 mount bushings, and one 9940 suspension balls. Also, you'll need pistons, the number depending on which you want. They come four to the pack, with E-clips.

Any good model shop should have all these in stock.

Chazz, I knew he would want em, he just didn't ask that

[Darren Boyle]

Yep, Matt and of course Chazz are quite right this is what is needed. You can substitute the 5079 with 5023 from Losi, same thing but a little cheaper strangely. All in stock if you require them (very low on 1.0 shafts though)

In racer aug 08 current issue they say to get the 1.2" rear bodies with 1.0" shafts and 0.6" shafts and bodies so which is it, what racer say or

guys, i don't have this car, but if you're to use the 1.2" rear bodies, would you need the bk2 rear axles as well to allow for the extra droop (pushing the driveshaft further into the outdrive)?

Might be wrong, but if i'm not, best to add this to the list of things needed!!
