Default What shocks you running?

What shocks everybody running? Was thinking about trying the gmade xd piggybacks. Was maybe thinking about the 103mm and running the level 3 droop kit.... Any opinions or info would be great, thanks

I am running the 103mm gmade piggybacks and they work great. No droop kit, just did the lower tricks for the stock shock mounts.

I run the stocker, but with STRC bodies and cap. They work good and don't leak anymore. Included dual stage pistons are a plus. I run them with Jeepin Doug spring retainers and losi white springs.

I have the Proline Powerstroke shocks for the front of the Slash. They're very nice, but articulation is definitely reduced do to their length. I'm also running a CSM, so that's part of the issue. I'm not ready to change them yet, but I may want something slightly longer in the future.

I'm running 120mm Boom racing piggyback shocks.

With stock mounts, it is the longest you can get before binding. I tested a little farther and it is too much.

If you raise the upper mounts, You could easily work with a 138mm shocks as stated above^

I'd love to see how much articulation you can get with 138mm!!!

Any of you guys that are running longer shocks care to post some pictures. I'm looking to going a little longer and. Just want to get an idea.

RC4WD 100mm King with piggyback. At first I was hesitant on how soft they were. Now I wouldn't choose anything else.
