Yeah I think I’m got to pay out for a set off shocks

Whys that?

 

[a6lns]

Because I’ve re built them now I went out in garden with it now the rears are now leaking again these are horrible shocks

 

[Seandonato73]

Yep that's why I said to get 5ive shocks.

 

[a6lns]

yeah I no but its just finding 4 front Losi 5t shocks on eBay etc

 

[Seandonato73]

Yeah it's a bit of a pain, just remember if your getting close to $200.00 for a set, just order irc shocks and be dine with it.

 

[a6lns]

yeah I am going to order them tomorrow

 

[Jshaff16]

They come up every few days from large scale rc...on ebay. That's how I scored mine.

 

[a6lns]

I went to order the irc shock doesn’t have the colour I want so I think I’m stuck with these dam things

 

[Seandonato73]

Play the ebay game then.

 

[a6lns]

Yeah been looking on there nothing yet have to try and do something with the stock ones to get me buy

 

[a6lns]

Does Anyone no if the original shock springs still go on the irc shocks

 

[Seandonato73]

No idea, but you should be able to look up the spring diameter.

Does Anyone no if the original shock springs still go on the irc shocks

pretty sure rhey don't?

 

[a6lns]

Probably to big then says online shock body 20mm

 

[a6lns]

Anyone no if the dbxl e 2.0 shocks go on the dbxl

 

[Seandonato73]

Should same size and whatnot. don't know if they are an improvement or not. Would need some input from one who has a 2.0 fir feedback on that, but they should be a direct swap

 

[a6lns]

Plus they have normal shock oil in and not diff oil having seconds thoughts about the irc cos you cant use the original springs on them which is a bit disappointing

 

[Seandonato73]

I wouldnt worry about using the stock springs on the irc shocks, the springs they come with are about right for most, but if the new dbxl shocks take std shock fluid they must have updated them. If it's cheaper go that route.
