I just built mine, so no i havent, but i had read reviews and it seemed like a lot of folks said it hurt the crawling performance due to the extra height but had more articulation.

I have it.....love it...crawls like a goat, but I also have full brass axles and weighted wheels.

I don’t need these. They increase the CG.

Does anyone know the extended and compressed length of the shocks that come with this long arm lift kit?

Re: Trx4 lift
 

It looks like the shocks for the lift kit are 110mm extended, but I cannot find info on them compressed. Can anyone who has the kit take a look? It sounds like they have spacers to prevent them from full collapsing.

EDIT: Ok I think I have this sorted out. The shocks are def 110mm long extended(see here: https://traxxas.com/sites/default/fi...-Box-PRESS.pdf). So with that in mind I also found TRA8161 which are the Long GTS specific shock shaft and are 57mm. The regular GTS shaft(TRA8263) is 47mm.

So the long shocks are 20mm longer total, with a 10mm longer shaft, which means the body is also 10mm longer. My educated guess is that the shocks are:

Extended: 110mm
Collapsed without bump stops: 75mm

Stock shocks:

Extended: 90mm
Collapsed without bump stops: 65mm

So you pick up 10mm of travel with these.

Good info, I have nothing to add but since I can’t “like” this just know it’s helpful "thumbsup"

Re: Trx4 lift
 

Just edited my post. I've got the collapsed length now.

I’ve got a Sport that I threw the lift kit on with 2.2 Swamper XLs. Looks killer, crawls crappy. Lol. My stock Sport on Canyons crawls WAY better.

I might try to long travel it and put much smaller 2.2s on it to see how I like that. We’ll see.
