need longer travel shocks

[obijuan]

my trucks flexability is greater than my shocks allow and my turned tlt shocks are totally biting my style. i bottom out and top out if that even is the word for it. anyways, i need some scale looking or close, longer travel shocks, non coilover. if anyone has any ideas that would be great.

i was thinking adding an extension to the shock body so the shaft can travel farther upward and possibly a longer shaft. thanks

you can try inboarding them, by putting them at an angle you effectively increase there travel

I would got with some Hotbodies shocks, you can go to towerhobbies.com or rc4wd.com to get them. Then put VMG, Losi mini t, or Mini quake springs on the inside making internal shock that give of a really scale look and still allow the travel of a 101mm shock.

I forgot to tell you, Ive seen and tried, to sandblast the shock body to really get that silver scale look like the Extreme travel Edelbrocks. rc4wd has some F@$%in sweeeeeeet scale shocks with reservoirs. Or theres always the Hi Lift Shocks. Its all about how much cash you wan to lay down and how scale you want your rig to look. "thumbsup"
