| RC4WD Boggers and Shocks
After searching for days, I have made my mind up. I am going to go with the 1.9 boggers. I am now questioning what size shocks to order. I am going to use the proline 1980 blazer body for my scale build, and keep the cf-100 body to bash. I cant decide between 100mm or 110mm. I am leanig towards the 110mm, because i dont want to have to lift the body off the frame. What do you guys think? Thanks

stock axial 90mm or the proline powerstrokes would be the only shocks i would use |

I have the 80 longbed body with the boggers, I took some long rod ends from my XR shock tree to get a little more height, the fenders still need a pretty good cut where I have my body.

I just got that same body over the weekend along with some RC4WD swampers... I run the Axial 4 link with stock Axial shocks... had to cut the fenders a lot in order to get it to fit at all. With those tires, I may not get the combo I'm looking for, the scale look with good crawling... Also, the fenders didnt quite line up with the wheels. Did you have the same problem V3500?

I really don't want to cut the body. I want to lift chassis, so I don't have to cut. I am thinking 110mm but really not sure yet. I will do more research. Last edited by V3500; 01-18-2011 at 06:22 PM. | |

Yeah, that is the big question. I have read a lot of good things about the powerstrokes, but they are not any longer than stock. Really check the specs. I think stock axial shocks are 90mm eye to eye.
