I have set of the longest Zero shocks on my AX-10 and am overall happy with them. They look very sharp. They come with two sets of lower spring retainers, plastic and blingy aluminum, but the aluminum ones don't fit well on the AX-10. They outsides were spotless and scratch free, but I had to clean the crap out of the inside of the bodys to get the pistons to operate smoothly. The upper pivots on the bodies have a tick of lateral play in them, which bugs me a little. There is no vertical play, and I could probably put a set of O-rings on them to remove it. I have probably twenty crawling hours on them and two are just starting to leak, compared to the stockers that leaked sitting on the bench. |

After reading reviews, i think i'm leaning toward them, people also mentions Big Bores but i think theese will be the best. Do you know the best place to get them?

Have you seen anyone running the Gmade G-Transition shocks? I'm going to get Gmades but can't decide between the two.

I have a set of the Gmade Team Zero (black 94mm). The only comment I have is they leak, leak, leak. They are only about 3 to 4 weeks old. I read great reviews on these but I guess someone had to get the bad set.

I run them on my axial, I only have a few packs through them. I think with some tuning in the springs and some different weight oil they can be quite good. But will wait and see.

those reviews are for the transition shocks obviously, not the zero, which is not only what is being asked about but is the title of the thread. gg

well sorry if i misinterpreted something or if that word is spelled horribly but I bought the zeros, built em up, and they are amazing. Super smooth, springs not to stiff, and unlike what i usually hear about gmade they are holding oil very well. maybe not for everones application but they work very well with my custom shortened wheelbase and very heavy truck. a lot of travel is obviously a must but my ride is I guess a 1/11 or 12 to fit the body i wanted to run, so fit perfect. but any other crawler and i would probly just get 110mm. Ill put some pics in an album so you can decide for yourself but its not 100% and you might giggle at my truck but ill do whatever to get out crawlin!

I run them on my baja/mudd truck scx10 I have loved them till today the rears started binding up so I pulled them apart and the fluid was verry nasty 2nd time I have changed fliud and I had to change the valve inside to get it to work correctly . I beat on my truck pretty hard tho and have ran sevral times in water/mud/snow but now I see they are discontinued and I'm wondering how I will get more valves?

I was hoping for some to have a review of these on their Wraith. That is what I want to put them on. I have been running Traxxas big bores on all of my rigs for years. I really want something more scale. These seem to fit into my vision of what I want from my first Scaler attempt. | |
