I have to go with Associated. They are strong and light you can get them almost anywhere.

I went for losi, I haven't used ether, but everything else losi made for crawlers has been top notch, but there is nothing wrong with the reliable big bores ether.

I like the big bores, there bullet proof. The losi are good, but I don't like bottom filled shocks.

I think Losi's would be the best shock but, there crawler additions are 4" long eye-eye. Which in my opinion would be to long. I would shoot for the 3.5 in range for droop. I've got Losi .9" threaded bodies with 1.0" TiNit shafts and that end up being about 3.80". I love them they work FLAWLESS! I see the majority of people running Big Bores on their Hustla...

X2 ....I have both Losi's and Traxxas big bores, your kidding yourself if you think the big bores are smoother. The big bores IMO are #2

My Losis are among the smoothest shocks I've ever used. Easy to maintain, too.

X2.......... Plus you can still use the larger Losi springs, when you switch the spring cups
