The RPM shock hoops won't work on the II without some creativity because the panhard mount is molded into the stock shock hoop.

I would suggest keeping yours stock other than maybe buying a set of dingo kit shocks. cheaper than rc4wd and perform better imho. I had them on mine before I shipped it off to a new home.

you will enjoy it stock. I promise.

Yeh it's not really a performance vehicle, and as such, can be run stock without having any upgrades.

How are either of those "upgrades". I don't see it. Enlighten me.

Are you going to start a new thread for every mod you do on your rig?

Why replace plastic with plastic. I would add a cross member between shock hoops. They flex a lot.

On the hoops I don't see the mount for the panhard bar. And I personally if I was going to do a shock upgrade it would be the prolines for sure. IMHO

I just like to upgrade my rc's to the next level if they need them or not.
I may even put in a RC4WD R2 Transmission.
That seems kind of backwards. The current trans in the SCX10 II, either the Kit or RTR are perfectly amazing transmissions.

I don't mean to harp on this, but have you even driven the truck in it's stock form? It's nice to set benchmarks for performance before you change things.

Can you please stop making every single thing you post in bold?

It's really pretty damn annoying.


On topic:
What are you trying to accomplish with these upgrades? The stock shock towers can be braced, and there are aluminum ones from other vendors coming soon that also include the panhard mount.
There are a ton of shock options out there, but the RC4WD are not typically at the top of the list, do some more research before you drop $120 on bad upgrades.
