The Traxxas Ultra shocks aren't bad. They do require the slightly larger Traxxas or Losi springs as well but those are easy enough. They are available in several lengths as well. However, even the long (shortest common length) is about the length of a truck front, maybe a little shorter than an AE 1...

Trinity made some as well. There are a few on ebay.

If you don't need deep well, a common bit driver works.

Short course or stadium truck shocks should be fine. As far as I know, most are approximately the same length as earlier truck shocks. If there is a place of concern, it'd be the rear shocks.

At least we can't see Uranus.

I just had a buddy give me a throw away box full of RC gear someone was dropping off at an electronics recycling drive. In it among other stuff was a still clear yoko Super Dog fighter yz10 with a REVTECH motor. That's the kind of friends that I need. Mine give me yard tools. I'm like, "dude, ...

Could run out of drinks?

Made my first battery pack. Screenshot_20220625-210218_Gallery.jpg While this isn't anything special, I've just never had to do it. Everything I owned used stick packs. I needed a four cell pack for my Bud's dyno and some saddle packs for another car. I used the four cell pack as the trial run. I di...
