Default budget shocks

I bought used trx4. I don't have the so called great stock traxxas shocks. What is a good budget shock?

EDIT: I don't have the stock shocks... When I bought the trx, it came with hobbyparts shocks which i lost a spring retainer... Seems cheaper to buy some new shocks...

The stock TRX-4 shocks are really good. You don't need to upgrade them unless there's something wrong with them.

Now I understand.

Check eBay for new TRX-4 take off shocks for $50 to $60.

Yes, go to ebay and find yourself a set of TRX4 GTX shocks. They are what came on the truck and Traxxas offers a range of optional rate springs for them so you and fine tune the ride.
