| Shock suggestions
I currently am running Traxxas GTR shocks and love them they are smooth, dont leak and built very well. But with my current setup Im in need of something with a little more travel for a slight bit more articulation. So what is out there that is built just as good as the GTR (or better) that has a slightly longer travel (like say 5~10mm more). Also overall length I would like to keep to a minimum and dont want a longer shock and have to limit it. Ive had Big bores and Losi's but Im looking for something different.

I was looking at a couple Ofna shocks online but cant find any i2i measurements on them. Anyone have any experience with Ofna shocks?

What kind are you looking at? I run an ofna pro comp 1/8. the shocks are great and can take alot of abuse. Not shure if this is what your looking for.

What the total length of those fully extended and compressed? I was looking at different ones. Im trying to find something that has a longer stroke then my current GTR's and around the same overall length or even slightly longer. Thanks |

The shocks on the rear of my OFNA Ultra gt lx buggy are ridiculous in width and length. And they are bullet-proof. They are probably a wee bit stiff for crawling, but that can be changed with softer springs.
