Looks like they sale 80mm, 90mm, 100mm, and 110mm.

The travel amount is gonna depend on which one u choose..


If you look at some of their scale shocks that are Internal sprung, there is dimensions on them ..the 100mm has 23mm of travel.. I would say the externally sprung shock has slighy more travel..most other shocks at 100mm seem to have 29mm of travel..

I don't have facts but I'd say the 100mm rc4wd dual spring scale shock has about 25mm travel..plus or minus a couple mm

Well, you'll need to know what lenght shocks you need before you call them most likely..

Did you measure it.. At ride height, measure from the upper mount to the lower mount. That will be your extended lenght..

When they Advertise the shock being 80, 90, or 100mm ect. That is the extended length..

Just for a little extra help if you have a limited supply of measuring tools,
25.4mm equals 1 inch, so a 100mm shock is real dam close to a 4" shock extended lenght!!
