Default Shocks for Gmade Spider

Hey Guys,

I'm about to pull the trigger on one of these Gmade Spiders, and I will need to buy some shocks. What would you all recommend? I see everyone seem to like the Losi Comp shocks, but what are some other shocks should I look for? Also, anyone know the length I should be looking for?

Thanks for your time and help,
Nick

Well, on their website, Junfac recommends that you buy "T/E Maxx Style" shocks:

Personally, I prefer the Traxxas Big Bores over the Losi shocks. I just could never get the Losis to stop leaking. I believe these are the 4" shocks from Traxxas:

You might want to call the Traxxas help desk and verify their length...
