thanks but i hate b4 shocks, the ones on my b4 leaked all the time despite 3 rebuilds, not seen any bad reports on the ansmann alloy shocks, nice to keep with the whole green thing too,, where did you hear they are duff?

The Ansmann ones are fine. Actually rather nice to build and stay leak-free nicely. Not sure how long the anodising will last on the inside but then who really cares

The Ansmann xpro greens are great shocks.Ignore anyone on here who says they are no good.
APEX models sell them but they will cost you

thanks for that, dont mind cost if they work, as for the losi , b4 shocks they are all guff in UK conditions, ive tried them and the rebuilds are endless, the ansmann ones use a three piece body and are what i am used to, tamiya use three piece shock body's and i have never in my 48 tamiya model history had them leek or fail , one set of losi and one set of b4's and they both had dirt ingress and leeked half way through the first run, i am told they are great in U.S conditions or indoors though .THANKS AGAIN FOR THE RESPONSES.
