| Yah they will work just fine with Bully axles..You might have to use a small spacer at the axle as I did to get them clear the gearboxes though. |

| You can run just about any shocks on any axle. It all depends on the angle and installation as to whether they will function the way you want them to. With the Losi's on the Bully axles make sure you have plenty of spacers handy and dont be afraid to run them wide at the chassis. The Losi's have a long stroke so the angle of the shock can change more as the as the suspension articulates. Make sure you can go through your entire range of motion on the axle without the shock binding on the gearbox. This can put pressure on the angle of the shaft in the body and cause leakage. This is true on any shock but ESPECIALLY the leakylosi's. Last edited by Culetto; 06-29-2009 at 06:17 AM. |

| with the Fubar chassis i had to change the shafts to shorter ones.unless you are running a very tall chassis i think you will have to do this or put limiters inside the shock on the shaft. |

| I am also using losi shocks and they fit fine once you figure out your spacers. I had to use 3/4 inch limiters externally on the shafts to avoid 90 degree articulation. |
