| Help with future build
Hey all, I'm trying to get some parts together for a build I will be starting next month. The Chassis I am using is a Chaotic Crawler's Smash chassis with Ti links for XR10 axles with VP links. I'm trying to select shocks. I'm looking at Traxxas Big Bore (via DLUX website) . I'm looking at the 4" with lathed body and cap mod with mini t-spring set. Is this a good shock set up? Should I go with a different size shock? (a bit shorter?) Is the lathed body worth it? What about the cap mod? Thanks again for any help. |

Go to the xr section and look and see what other guys are running with their smash chassis. Ok for shocks you have a couple options: the big bores your looking at but get the 3.5" with cap mod and lathe scx10 shocks either stock/icon/eggressor Tech Thread -- SCX10 shocks kyosho velvets in 3.5" with cap mod Any of those will do the job. I run the stock scx10 shocks with the traxxas bladders and O-rings, limited internally and externally> I find them to be great for me! Last edited by mammoth; 08-31-2013 at 12:26 PM. |

I run the 3.5 big bores with mini t springs with cap mod on my xr10 and love them...but as stated above , there is alot of info in the brand specific xr10 section..Good luck on your choices.
