| Losi 4" shocks and oil
I am going to swap out my stock shocks for a set of the losi comp crawler 4" shocks. I am wondering what oil you guys are liking in them for those who run them?

Ive been using them for quite some time now on an scx10..I like them. They haven't leaked at all and stay nice and smooth. They are 3mm shorter though so your ride height will drop a bit and you may lose a little travel...Don't own a wraith so dont no of any drawbacks if any..But the shocks are good shocks in general.

Every rig, driver, and style of driving is different. Trial and error will tell you what you need to know. |

I've been using them too in scx10 based vehicles for 3 yrs or more and they work great. I'm building an axial wraith right now that has a set ready to go in them. The shock oil weight that you run in them matters what terrain you run them in. I too would start out with a 30w oil ( in the wraith)to begin trial and error.
