Default Where can I get really long shocks?

Im needing shocks longer than the 110mm shocks that i have found. Somewhere in the range of 120 to 160mm. Not quite for sure on the exact length yet. I would appreciate any help you could offer me. Thanks Nate

Um your best bet is stock length AX10 Shocks. That chassis is made to use the stock AX10 shocks. It will have the right amount of ground clearance with the stock shocks and the bump stocks put on the inside of the shock body. You can even run 4 inch losi shocks or the new 4 inch Axial shocks. If you run a longer shock it will set up way to high. The shock mounts just look high due to the way the chassis is made. look around at some Warthog builds and you will see what I mean.
