I've had good luck with them. I'm running them with the RC18t silver springs, 4 hole piston and 30wt oil. They seem real smooth and consistant on the rocks. I like the fact I can swith to droop and run the longer rodends that come with them and still maintain good groud clearance

well i thought my shipments would of came in on friday they didntso i cant run the truck yet so i dont know the performance yet. but i did change over to the rc18t rear blue springs front and rear with the 3 hole piston, it rebounds a bit slow so i may switch over to the 4 hole piston. but since i took out the stock hard springs it articulates much better. they feel smooth and i have no leaks been pushing up and down on them a lot. | |

Anyone using internal springs in the stock shock bodies? How is that working out?

Maybe a stupid question. But I am new to crawlers so I am a bit curious. Why change the stock shocks in the AX10? Are they bad? |

Im running stock shocks that work great, but I had to customize them a bit to do it. Put 3/8 diam 3/4" long soft springs inside under the piston and run axial white front and green rear springs outside, stock internal disk dampers and 30 wt oil. Also added 1/4" spacers bettween the shock rod ends and spring cups to limit uptravel a bit and add a bit off preload. Rear shocks and links are mounted 1/4" further outward on the axle end. Upper links lengthened to 70mm with relocated mounting holes on the frame. Tires have 3 oz stick on wieght each. With this set up my lower links are 100% horizontal at ride height I have about 3/4" of uptravel and 1/2" of droop as well as barely any torgue twist. Would like to find some threaded alum shock bodies the same length as the stockers and I think it would be perfect |
