Traxxas Big Bores are I think a little nicer than Losi's. There both 4" good Luck. Try the search engine: "droop" im sure you will get a lot of hits. You might get more info with the search feature than I can explain it. |

Whitty, I have used 3Racing shocks before (not the ones you listed) and they are fine, but are quite difficult to get replacement parts for. I am now running the Losi crawler shocks and they work well. |

Losi makes a good shock, never had a problem with them. I have always had problems with the 3racing shocks. My .02

what about creating a droop set up on them. Or are they not the best for the droop set up? And how easy are they to get mounted ect upside down?
