I would like to start a thread for XR10 shock setup and tuning Feel free to post your XR10 shock setup, brand, type, spring, etc Please list reasons and terrain that cause you to run a specific setup or any other variables we may like to know about. My current XR10 shock setup: Front: Axial 72-103mm comp shocks Piston - Delrin Oil - 40wt Spring - Losi Gold Shock length - 108mm Rear: Axial 72-103mm comp shocks Piston - Delrin Oil : 40wt Spring - Losi Gold Shock Length - 108mm Last edited by Rig Rocker; 09-28-2010 at 11:37 AM.

Figuring everyone runs a different shock setup...Don't know the success on this being a sticky... But.... machined piston front/rear Stock weight Gold Losi springs front/rear...Softer the better. |

Sounds like a go setup, how smooth is the shock travel compared to stock form?

Shock oil, piston, and spring rates are dependent on each rigs suspension geometry, overall weight, weight bias, ride height, full droop height, ect. If you want this thread to reach its full potential you should list a lot more info Your shock setup may not work for someone running a rig 1lb heavier or lighter than you. O yeah, don't forget terrain REALLY comes into play as well! Best thing you could do is start a thread where everyone can share their XR10 setup sheet and explain their setups/changes. http://www.axialracing.com/ftp/pdfs/...setupsheet.pdf |

You're missing Brandons point. I can take the shocks of your truck, which may work very well, and put them on my truck and it makes my truck a pile of poo. There is alot more than just shocks. Shocks are a big part of it, no doubt, but they need to be set up for each truck. I agree with the set up sheet sticky but a shock tuning sticky is kinda useless.
