Upgraded to 3.8" Losi Shocks (think they're losi), too short, drags bellly a little too much. T-Maxx Shocks look to be the length needed, I am swapping out today sometime.  |

T-maxx shocks at full extension make the lower links parallel with the ground. A little less ground clearance than stock, but way better than the plastic junk the truck comes with. Now I get hung up on the lower link fasteners that attach to the tranny plate. I'm gonna switch out those to button heads and see if it helps.

I traded mine for threaded aluminum mt2 shocks, their the same size but offer more fine adjustment

While over at a friends house today, I was looking at some shocks he had laying around. There was a pair of 1/8 scale buggy Rear shocks that are the same length as the Axial shocks. You would have to experiment with different oils and springs to get the feel you want.
