Default 3.5 traxxas big bore

i bought these thinking that I was getting the 4in shocks but they seem to measure eye to eye 3.5in. can't seem to post the site but the part number is 2660. they are traxxas long big bore ha. What do you guys think? Would they work better for my t1e chassis than the 4in?

Those would be the front buggy/truck shocks. The rear shocks are 4" shocks. I believe the 4" rears are also the same as the Maxx truck shocks.

There are big bores (3.5" Traxxas part # 2660), extra long big bores (4" Traxxas part # 2661), and the set of 8 for the T and E-Maxx trucks, which are also the same 4" shocks, just in an 8 pack (Traxxas part number 4962).

Nice find. The Duratrax 3.5" shocks look a little cheap. I like big bores much better anyway

Mine came in today. They are a little different than the full size big bores. The big mounting tab on the cap is smaller on the 3.5" shocks. You can't drill it out to losi size like you can the long big bores.

But the caps are interchangable

Yes! The t1e like the shorter shocks. Best setup imho.
