Could try these:
http://rc-car-online-shop.de/shop/e...alloy-shock-absorber-08-long-4-mm-2-pcs-.html

Various 'variations' regularly pop up on Ebay from time to time - check out Ebay.de as well - always ask if they accept Paypal and how much is postage first before bidding.

Spares always seem to be available ....

No worries.
They normally have 3 body sizes, and 2 shaft sizes .....
Short, Medium, Long, ...... and Short, Long, ..... so be a bit careful here.

i'd also recommend the alloy, oringed pistons...make for the smoothest shocks out there...i found the alloy fg shocks and those pistons totally transformed the handling etc on my old fg baja...beware of some of the ebay shocks...they are worse than crap...been there done that as they say

That's what I have!!!
As you say - nice!!

I have the shafts with the nylock nut on, instead of the E-clip.

could be expensive with 8 shocks,whats wrong with the stock springs?
i have a mate with a marder with the alloy shocks,iut handles just the same as mine! they are the same dimensions just alloy. watch what you buy,when i got my marder i brought some alloy shocks,turned out to be onroad versions,thinner.
if you do want to go quality witha nice feel, go elcon mate.
