XV-01 or XV-01 long damper?

[rally racer #75]

I found a great deal for both xv01 and xv01 long damper set (long damper set is a bit more expensive). I was wondering if there were any big difference other then the down travel. Should I just buy the XV-01, or the XV-01 long damper set?

Have anyone converted his regular or pro XV-01 to long dampers spec? I´d like to kindly ask for a parts list. Thanks

i converted mine with these parts...

1 x Tamiya Long Carbon Damper Stay Front - 54581
1 x Tamiya Long Carbon Damper Stay Rear - 54582
2 x Gmade XD Diaphragm Shock 75mm 2pcs For 1/10 Crawler EP Buggy - GM22307

Note: you dont have to replace your shocks like i did, you can just use the included CVA Mini Dampers with the long shock rod end

WOW man, that looks sick! With those shocks, do you get any travel length increase?

i never measured but you've only got about 10mm travel on the CVA mini dampers and 17mm on the Gmade shocks i've used

what that translates to on the vehicle i couldnt say as i never directly compared, but needless to say its an improvement
