I've got a buddy on here running the Losi shocks on his Edge, and I think that's about the most belly clearance you're gonna get out of it. As far as the semi-droop setup that is what I'm running, it's just internal springs both under as well as on top of the piston inside the shock body, but I don't know for sure how well that would work with the Losi's.

Here's mine as it sits now, took out the VF Dig though in favor of the much nicer R2D

any suggestions on a good starting point for a tcs edge chassis using stock a10 shocks using internal med springs ? oil weight ? spring rate? and spacer placement ? thanks for any info.

I do like that edge chassis; looks much more crawler like IMO; even though I really like my baja bug body too.

you are gonna get about 100 different opinions on this. i run the stock shocks with the HPI soft spring inside all 4 under the piston, spacers under the piston, 3/4" (hardware store)firm springs on top of the piston, 100 wt oil in the driver's side rear shock, 60 wt in the pass. rear, no oil in the fronts, 2 part epoxy all the caps to the shock body 'cause i am sick of the caps popping off and this was a last attempt at running the stock shocks.....they suck! it took me about a month to come up with the set up that works for me. kinda all depends on your terrain, driving style, patience level.
