best srb front shocks!
i was running the stock shocks on the front end / that worked well untill the front springs broke from wear points. i use the car alot with 18650 batteries....
i got the rcchannel front shocks but the springs are not great and the shocks are garbage. also the shock adaptors are garbage so the lower shock mount needs to be shortened to 0.350" so the shock mount adaptors can be deleted.

i was looking at 19mm spring shocks but they dont fit because spring clearance to the upper arm...
then in complete despiration i mounted the stock fighting buggy rear shock and it fits PERFECTLY. all the sudden the shocks offset top mount works perfectly and is very much needed.
the hose mount needs to be deleted and a bleed screw added in its place if you want to ditch the shock oil tank that sits on the top back end of a fighting buggy.
-the lower arm mounts need to be shortened to 0.350" if you want to fit the rcchannel shocks or the rear fighting buggy shock on the srb front end without the pos rcchannel front shock adaptors that are novelty garbage.

I'm pleased I'm not the only one :? Thanks for the info chaps. :D
so, i'm hunting around on tower, and i start to look at the b44 front shock kit. i see that they use a .80 shock shaft, and you can buy it seperately from the kit. but, are the shock bodies .89's like the b4? there's no seprate part number for those.
well since i cant sell my rc10 gold pan i guess i will put it back to a stock buggy. were can i find front and rear shocks for my gold pan? Will a b3 or b4 shocks work? i also need front shock tower and body with wing. and front and rear tires. if...
Do any of you have a suggestion or a technique for bleeding the front shocks to match as small as they are? I have the newer style V2 small bore shocks with the bleeder screw caps on. I can get the back shocks easy and perfect. But the fronts are...
