Default DF03 hop-up shocks
Right, had mine off today, as I have been building a 3Rwacing conversion, so I thought, I would try the touring car TRF pistons, and you know what, they fit!!!

smaller holes, much MUCh better pack, they no longer allow the car to react like a pogo stick and can use decent oil (like 35wt) and not 60wt.

If anything, these might just need drilling out just a smidging.

got some parts numbers steve? I found even the hop up shocks to be poor compared to B4 shocks just because of the pistons.
