Thank's got these shocks off a friend, but i have ordered some shocks from the link emaxxxjeremy posted and it shiped within 5 days. These shocks make a big difference in my oppinion

[Wild Snapper]

I like the rig man, cool paint job and colors. I'm running the same shocks and I like them so far.

needed better shocks stock ones leak to much? the shock is not really that much shorter but it did take some of the articulation away that the stock MRC has which is ok with me

[Wild Snapper]

I fully agree with a little less articulation being a good thing. It is something one needs to experience for themselves. It took me awhile to try it, but I did and now I like the setup.

if you are reffering to the ball ends no i didnt have to shave anything. mounted them up to the stock shock mount and added a couple of washers for spacers. on the top all i did was cut the stock plate right at the shock mounts. lossend the mount, turned them up then put a busshing spacer in and mounted the shocks to that.

no its not but it has held up pretty good though, its Testors Lacquer they have some pretty cool colors

[finishline]

thank you by the way

[highhpcummins]

No prob, I been looking for that color for while that won't flake. I did a pretty good tutone with house of color paint & after few rollovers it started flaking. Kinda piss me off. I might give that one a try.
