I got a set of lightly used ProLine Powerstrokes from, I believe, the classifieds on this site. I refused to pay full price because I think ProLine is insane. They are very nice. I haven't put them on my MT yet, but they are smooth. They are huge in diameter though so they won't look scale. GMade makes nice shocks for sure. | |

yeah and i read about the problems with them leaking but figured id give them a shot but i haven't even had a chance to do anything with them i still may run them for awhile and just deal with it before i pony up the money for some yeti size powerstrokes i figured with the weight the larger bore may help. i'm still trying to figure out a swaybar setup before i make one... | |

Yes, the big bore of the Powerstroke will be great for the extra weight. They just don't look scale so if you can look past that you'll probably love them. The Axial SMT10 comes with Swaybars. You can buy take-off ones on eBay usually for cheap. There is also the Hot Racing Swaybar setup for Wraiths. There are other sway bars options as well such as RH Designs (Facebook) and JEC (Facebook) might also have some. I'm not sure which will work best for your chassis. | |

as long as they are within reason of looking scalish i'm okay with that if they are a little big but perform great i can deal with the difference in size. i was looking into those and i found come CPE ones that aren't in stock but i think the measurments may work i have to check later but ill look into those others and see how they may work. if not ill make some and machine some arms. currentlly as it sits with just the weight of the chassis it needs swaybars lol i can only imagine with the battery and electronics weight! | |
