| My shocks are leaking.
Two of them even. No biggie, I bought the cheap RS10 knowing I'd have to eventually replace failing stuff. I saw that CKRC has a set of aluminum replacement shocks. Price is right. Made me wonder something. Do RS10 and Axial shocks swap? CKRC was swift, but not as swift as a drive to the hobby shop. I wanna fix them sooner than later. The weather is beautiful today, and I just remade my pile of concrete into the impossible hill from hell. I WANNA PLAY!! But yeah, they swap right? |

pretty much any shock can be interchanged. the stock axial ones are kinda crappy. the caps tend to pop off. just figure out how long of a shock you need and dig around on the net. i run tmaxx shocks on mine. 3racing has a pretty cheap set for the axial. 124mm i believe. they come with internal springs for droop and outer springs for regular. toadz toyz has them. at some point im gonna upgrade mine. not in that big of a rush anyways. other things i want more.

Pretty much any and all aftermarket shocks will fit. One thing to keep in mind, though is shock size. A 4'' shock will work fine, whereas a 90mm shock will be a bit more difficult to fit since they're smaller. ^^ beat me to it haha. |

Joke's on me. I ordered a set from ckrc, couldn't find anything I liked at the hobby store. Then I discovered that the little silver cap had loosened. I tightened it (and the other three, which were also loose) and it's good as new. Still got new ones coming. |
