Default Shock confusion!

These are the shocks for Losi 1:10 buggies:

Losi rear dampers 2WD:
LOSA5064 shaft 1.0" (1 pcs)
LOSA5055 body 0,9" (2 pcs)


Losi front dampers 2WD:
LOSA 5060 shaft 0,6" (1 pcs)
LOSA 5054 body 0,6" (2 pcs)


Losi rear dampers 4WD:
LOSA5062 shaft 1.2" (1 pcs)
LOSA5056 body 1.2" (2 pcs)


Losi front dampers 4WD:
LOSA 5060 shaft 0,6" (1 pcs)
LOSA 5054 body 0,6" (2 pcs)


Now, I reckoned I could later identify the parts by measuring them?

Converted to mm from inch:

0,60 inch > 15,24 mm
0,71 inch > 18,03 mm
0,80 inch > 20,32 mm
0,89 inch > 22,61 mm
0,90 inch > 22,86 mm
1,00 inch > 25,40 mm
1,02 inch > 25,91 mm
1,18 inch > 29,97 mm
1,20 inch > 30,48 mm


But I just cannot find any parts of the shock with those measures...

Que???

Internal travel of the piston maybe?

No, I've thought of all kinds of possiblities... but nothing seems to add up...

My conversions to mm are correct right?

(It's the same for Associated btw)

Conversion definitely correct but can't solve your problem

Thread (spring adjustment) length, shaft length (piston to thread), travel, can't really think what else it could be. The 4wd rears are a bit longer, that's all we need to know isn't it really. You could try a post on Losi USA forum if you're losing sleep over it!
