Shock Springs needed

[Tiki Woodie]

Hey Folks,

I am Looking for longier and softer shock Springs for a Fo-Xx VE.
The Monstertrucks seem to have the Same lagre bore shocks and the inner spring diameter is 20mm.
Mounted from stock are MA-075 what is a 8 turn 1.5, L75 spring.

Like mentioned looking for longer, 85-95mm and a softer overall behavior to make the car crawl better.
I have absolutely no idea where to look at all for that kind of stuff.

Would be great if someone already experienced something.

Best regards from Germany,

My "Upgrade" sticky has a bunch listed.

Thank you Bart,

Went thru that thread but the listed springs are NOT fitting the shocks on the Foxx here.
I already went into that trap and ordered the long blue ones for 1:8 cars. 336BL is what I had here last week. It was 16mm inner dia.
Not sure if the shock has been changed at all but it has a larger diameter. I need 20mm inner diameter.

The shock part number also seem to be different from your listing, they are MT113B on the Foxx.

Ok, these shocks are new since my list. What is the diameter of these new shocks. Most buggy shocks are 16mm or around there. How long are they eye to eye? You may need front springs or rears depending on body length.

The length eye2eye is 120mm, they came stock in 110 but had the wrong shock shafts installed.
I checked the manual and saw that there were 52mm shafts instead of the listed 62mm.
ordered the right ones to have 10mm more travel. Ending up at 120mm.

The shock body outer dia is 18mm, thread measures 19mm, springs are 20 inner and 23mm outer dia.

Front and read are the same.

Nice fat shocks that should be good for pepping them a little bit to fit my need:-)
Yeti XL springs look like the have 23mm outer dia too...... They seem to be too Lon with 105mm or so.

Mystical.....

You might want to try the big bores from st-rr or mp9 rears. Both cars use the same size shocks as the newer forces. Now I dont have part codes at hand nor do I reaaly remember lengths but I am positive they fit because I use them in one of my forces. Hope I helped.

[Tiki Woodie]

Thx! I am crawlend thru the Web to find out what is in there.
Are you sare those are 23mm Diameter Springs?
What length do they have uncompressed?

I saw the YetiXL runs 23mm shocks too.

wonder if Tekno shock springs could work? They have really soft rates available and i know we use kyosho springs on tekno shocks, as well as hot bodies too.

Finally ended up ordering some from an ST-SS

Part no.
IF348-1114 Big Shock Spring M&L (Green / 11-1.4 / L=95)
IF348-1116 Big Shock Spring M&L (Green / 11-1.6 / L=95)
IF348-1316 Big Shock Spring M&L (White / 13-1.6 / L=97)

Work very good!
