Mini-T Springs help

[treday619]

When you guys are inverting your Mini-T shocks on your Berg what are you using as a spacer on the shock cap?

Fuel Tubing or Ball Flange.

I am looking for a ball flange that will work with the Mini-T but have not been able to track one down. Your help is appreciated

I cut off the flange and drilled and tapped it for a 3 mm screw and threaded a rod end on it, also crazy origin has premade all. Caps for sale

You are using the entire shock from the mini-t?? Those are pretty darn short for a 1/10 vehicle. Most folks just use the springs on a 3.5-4" shock...

I am using the big bores and mini-t springs. So the shock is a 3.5 shock. Sorry should have clarified that. With the shock cap mod the shock is no longer a 3.5 shock so I would have to limit it internally which I do not want to do. I am running a 86jeep T1E chassis

I've used these on one of my bergs for the shock ball.

These are great for the mini t springs.

As for the springs, I use the red & pink springs from the mini t front spring packs, they work great.

Ahh....gotcha. Maybe you can use shorter rod ends on both the top and bottom.

BTW, when I need to limit my shocks, I prefer to use aluminum spacers. I've found that the fuel tubing will split...

I have always just drilled out the shock eye with a 15/64th drill bit and used a revo hollow ball in them
