Specs: Falcon Chassis and links by RC Twisted Designs Rear link plate and dig mount by RC Twisted Designs Fat Rock front servo plate RC4WD R2 Trans and rims Losi Tires Momba Max 35t Integy Front & Rear RCP CVD's RC4WD rear lock outs DX3 Radio HS5955tg steering servo HS645mg dig servo New Prototype Twisted Designs "ROXSHOCKS" which work awsome! I'll try and post some video of these shocks in action. Anyway here are the pics: Last edited by Reef; 08-31-2007 at 12:13 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. Last edited by Reef; 08-31-2007 at 12:40 AM. |

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

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. I think your all going to like them. |
