Bosscat question

[Brandon G]

I am the new owner of a Bosscat works thanks to chiprandall!

I was wondering what type shock cartridge originally came on this car, the white plastic or the purple aluminum?

The white one's

The aluminium was an earlier option (from the CAT 2000 and Cougar 2000 period) !

It was a LATER option actually, as the Bosscat predates the 2000 series of cars. The white ones were first, then there were grey molded units, and about thet same time came the rebuildable purple alloy units. I stopped using the Shumacher units when they came out with their wider springs (the powder coated units) and started using Losi shock cartriges in the Schumacher bodies. They are not the same thread, but they are of a similar diameter aand can be "self tapped" in nicely. -Jeff
