I really like to test them, because the downturned TLT-shocks on my tuber are performing very bad .....

110mm is the same lenght I am using now.

Thanks for the chance,

Pete

I'll try them. I have a custom built ladder frame WK scaler that needs something other than MAXX shocks. Here's a decent pic of it when I had just gotten it completely ready to run. Even has some Crushers on it...

Cost is always important to me? What is your projected price on these?

Thanks

Default The danger cart needs these

I think Master Shake's Danger Cart would be the perfect test vehicle for these shocks. It needs a minimum of 100 mm length and the rig is pretty heavy! I am almost finished with it, these are the only photos I have of it right now unfortunately. Please pick the Danger Cart your grandchildren's future depends on it America!

Very nice looking! Any chance of these in a 60-80mm length. And if the spots are not filled ill tesy them out on my clod body truggy "ultimate K30". I'm building the tube bed this week and it'll be heavy. I'm thinking about using turned down tlt shocks but these are much nicer.

Ohhhhh..... those are SOOO SWEEET!

Those are DEFINITELY the ULTIMATE scale shock.

Here's what they would go on.

Click the image to open in full size.

Here's how I run it, so you know they'll be tested VERY well.
Click the image to open in full size.

And why do I need them?

1.Because those are the PERFECT shocks for this rig,

2.I'm way too broke to ever be able to afford to buy a set,

3.right now I'm running two different kinds and lengths of shocks on this thing because one of them broke from one set and two of them are bent from the other set. (stock 120mm Wheely King shocks on front, El-cheapo 100mm 3racing shocks on the rear). It handles like absolute crap this way but I'm too broke at the moment to be able to buy a new set of shocks.

4. My wife is starting to get mad at me because the stock WK shocks leak REALLY bad and every morning there's a puddle of shock fluid under my crawler.

5. 120mm shocks are too long, 100mm shocks are too short. 110mm is juuuuuust right for this rig.

And 6. This would be the answer to my shock prayers!

Please please please please please please please.....

Do I have to beg more?

I definitely need a set or two of these!!!!
I've tried lots of different shocks and will give you guys and honest review and let you know exactly what if all needs to be changed to make them perform to best of their ability. I also would love to represent these shocks at Scale Nats on one of my 2.2 scalers that need 110mm shocks.

Old mock up pick of the PSC Bruiser, it will be completely decked out if I decide to run it at Scale Nats.

I would like to test a set, I have tested and provided feedback and photos of many of your products in the past and currently I think a set would look good on this thing...it had turned down TLTs with dual springs but it was to heavy for them so I opted for your White scale shocks.

Those are just what the FJ40 needs. 110mm would be perfect and give it much needed scale looking shocks. Its not a shelf queen, it actually get used and will be at the Montana Scale Nationals. I have a bunch of other scalers/crawlers to try them on and would give you honest and helpful feedback.
