Default shocks for the S2

i'm hoping to get an S2 in the near future and currently have a b4 to use as a donor and have heard that people use losi shocks instead.

does anyone have a link or part number for a complete set or if i am barking up the wrong tree and there are other shocks that should be used can you let me know.

cheers guys

Shocks have to be bought in parts I am afraid Bill and are quite expensive, or try and find some second hand ones and rebuild.

As far as I know nearly everyone is using the Losi shocks on theirs.

setup has changed a little since then Bill, we now almost always use the #56 pitston in the front and rear piston will be either #55 or #56, this will be your choice really on which rear end setup you like most.

Ah bollocks! I forgot to check that...

How much of a biggie is it to use XX4 rear shocks & pistons? More droop that's all?

Don't do it. XX4 shocks are way too long. Uptravel is reduced as well!
