Default Losi Shocks!!!!

I bought a set of Losi threaded shocks off of ebay (USA) and have never looked back!!!

In fact I bought my Losi shocks on a wim and they were sitting in the spares box until I broke a front Associated shcok shaft. I had two options 1. Go home and not race or 2. USe the Losi shocks. I went for the Losi shocks and have never bothered with fixing the broken Associated shockshaft. They are sooooo.... much stronger. The best £40 quid I have spent!!!!

Just go the whole hog and get all four complete Losi shocks!!!!

Same here, first time out with my freshly built B44 and someone hit me coming down the main straight and snapped a shaft. With no spare i stuck my losi shocks on and it feels soooo much better the B44 shocks are gonna stay broken. You will need the losi shock mounts too and space the fronts out a bit
