Do you mean with suspension the shox or in general?
What you want to change or improve?

I use still the kit icon shox, front with the blue 70mm Axial (Wraith) spring and 700cst oil, rear i use some hot racing aftermarket 54mm springs in a dual spring setup and 500cst oil. I run mostly on open gras surfaces with nasty little bumps. To get the rear to my liking took some try and error.
Also tried the proline rear shox for the yeti, but on my heavy little monster (~6kg) they didn't work for me, but on my light one (~4kg) i got them to work.
I assembled my kit icon shox with traxxas x-rings and green slime to prevent leaking.

The Powerstroke shocks from Pro-Line seem to be a favorite on Yeti / Yeti Score

Front - Powerstroke Slash Rears 6063-01

Rear - PowerStroke XT 6275-00
https://www.prolineracing.com/perfor...-xt-shocks.asp

I have seen people using these 12mm Pro-Spec shocks in the front but there’s no suitable alternative for the rear

I’m going to get a set of Powerstrokes front / rear for my Score. Make sure when you order the fronts you get PRO6063-05 universal mounting kit - based on what I’ve read in some threads you need the spacers to mount them
