can we get some more info on those shocks?

AIPOHAKU 08-31-2007 12:17 AM

Sweet set up bro!!..Those shocks look interesting!..Id like to see how they work!!

ThinkTank 08-31-2007 12:21 AM

That's cool.
R33F3R, Do you have an idea when the ROXShocks will be available?

Reef 08-31-2007 12:29 AM

Thanks guys!

Well basically the shock is a pretty cool idea.
It's 2 nicely cnc'd end caps with farrel fittings, A length of delrin rod and some sugical tube. Works kinda like a droop shock, Tom at Twisted Designs made them and plans on having these babies in production soon. Maybe he'll see my post and give some more info on them. They are going to come with different length delrin to make adjusting ride hight a breeze
and by punchin different size holes in the sugical tube you can adjust the draw. No more leaky oil, and amazing the steering clearence. There sweet!

Del Monte took a first place with these babies at our season opener and I took 6th. I had some dig failures so I really think I would have done better
if it wasn't for that.

Also those shock are cool!
BTW, what body is that?

So if different lenght shafts can be had, would you need to also change out the tubing, longer or shorter to accomadate the different shaft? Pretty cool idea, and nice rig

twisted 420 08-31-2007 09:13 AM

Depending on how much,if just to adjust ride hight no,the shocks are set for 2.2 comp rigs,you can use extra rods to create different set ups like SUPERS thats when you need longer tubing,working on final tube styles.
LOOK OUT
keep your eyes open!!!

Droopy took a large fall at a recent gtg. Ended up breaking a link and bending the whole frame beyond repair.

Thanks for all the great comments guys. I will try and get some vid of the shocks in action over the weekend.
