Thanks man. I'll make a note of that. I can see myself trying these out. Did you keep track of how much fluid it took to fill all of them? About 48ozs? LOL

No prob man!

Are you thinking of trying a set?

You have this set up for on road. Would the rears still be to long if a person wanted more suspension droop for an off road setup?

i think so yeh, i would reccomend fronts all round tbh

well when i say to long, i mean the achuall shock body(for the rear) is to long, so ur losing alot of suspention travel. (if u understand what i mean, im not the best at explaining)

so like on my rear shocks, there always about 1/3rd compressed at all times because they cant extend anymore because of the chassis stops.

if you look at the shock shafts on the front and rear, you can see i have ALOT more usable travel then i do on the rears, because the shock bodys on the front is shorter

the rears might be ok on a buggy if the arms have more travel then the mt

yeh they fit, and work like a charm!!!im in love with them after this weekend, you need to fit a spring washer to the wishbone pin to move the arm 1-2mm to one side for dogbone clearence then they bolt right on.

im running a pair of front and rear shocks, its working out great, but i wish i had ordered fronts for all round, as rears are abit long, and they will always be compressed (wish isnt good for the spring)

heres some pictures of them mounted to a MT

They look great!

They'll fit. Just have to mess with the length, a bit. Easy to do. Or you could go with the Nutech's like Obeast did.

Vancouver Hobbies should have them, as well.
