Default Shock questions

i have a stock scx10 dingo tr and have been wanting to get some new shocks. i am looking at RC4WD Dual Spring 110mm Scale Black Shocks from RPP Hobby, i was wondering if these will work and if anybody has used them, i dont know the shock length of the orginals but i believe they are about 90mm. if these are not good can anyone recommend some good shocks that will increase performance, money is not an issue and i want some good shocks. also will longer shocks help articulation at all? thanks for any help guys its really help full.

had them on a couple rigs and they were nice and scale looking and worked fairly well, but the O Ring inside would stick alot and had to change em out. plus the springs were to soft for my heavy trucks. maybe others will chime in.

could you use the springs from the orginal shocks to make them a little more stiff or are the springs differnt sizes, would you recommend them?

The springs off a Losi MiniT will fit those shocks. They sell front and rear (they are different lengths) in a pack of 6, with three different spring rates in each. Play around till they work for your setup...

fronts - LOSB1117

rears - LOSB1119

What do you mean by the O ring sticking inside, i know what an oring is but did it cause the shock to not move or just leak? orwhat did the O ring do when stuck?
