And sorry to tease you with a new shock that doesn't exist, lol. I also got a set of the Hobby Plus CR-24 aluminum shocks in today. I'm not sure which set I'm going to try first. Hmm... | |

Sometimes micros give some of the funnest problems, maybe all under 50 bucks!! I started with HR Losi shocks first and by dam going to have a lot of fun comparing the two. Keep us posted on the CR-24 shocks!! Wish I knew how to post pictures now I’m over 20 posts!!

Update: My front axle wore my three link “chicken bone” down and was starting to make noise. So I 4 linked the front end with spare parts I had laying around. It solves the drive shaft from rubbing, but I lost 5-8mm of articulation?! I only changed out the chicken bone. And I keep my links the same length as the chicken bone so I’m not sure what caused that but oh well. Before I 4 linked articulation... Sent from your iPhone. |

Yeh, I’ve been running the HR shocks that way since I got them wanted to do a comparison. The Grommets that I have found have just been to big or the rubber was to hard, tried cutting a section out,that only ended up with glueing them to the shock that just makes the grommet to rigid. Doesn’t let the ballstud swivel at the shock ends. Ive found two layers of heat shrink works best, on the backside where the threads poke thru heating a paperclip for the hole works better than an exacto knife.

| Re: Bigworm’s SCX24 Build Finally got around to installing these little guys. Nice little shocks but the springs are too stiff. Finding softer springs might prove difficult so I might just try to cut these down a bit. They sure look nice though, that's for sure. Last edited by punkindrublik; 08-01-2019 at 05:21 PM. |

I used these springs for mine. I also cut a couple coils off them as well. But I did the rear only. https://www.asiatees.com/display?RGT...d=148531&pid=1 | |

So, I got a set of Mill Stone wheel spacers. They don't fit. It's quite interesting that the nuts that came with the spacers don't fit inside the actual spacer itself. I'm wondering if you drilled them out to get them to fit.

The losi ones fit RC4WD, RGT, and the SCX24. And the redcat ones fit redcat, HBX and something else. I know the redcat version have larger circumference barrel nuts. Perhaps you got losi spacer with redcat nuts? Thats what Im thinking. | |

Do you recall where you got them from? Have a order out for the Mini Monster truck tires on those wheels. Just wondering if they can be found wheel only. Sent from my SM-N950U using Tapatalk |
