What options for buggy big bores do I have?
 
Looking for some big bores for my ofna buggy. I want something with plenty of oil volume and a good selection of heavier springs. The buggy I am making will be a bit heavier than most, so I want good shocks to help it perform! Any brand is fine!

Thanks!

Jammin has the big bore 16mm shocks like on the x2 buggy and truggy.

Jammin 16mm shocks are probably the best, cheapest option.

Unless, like in the UK, a complete set of XB808 shocks are available for about the same price, though you would need to buy different stand-offs. They are better shocks though. Also Xray make about 7 different spring rates, 3 heavier than stock, 3 lighter than stock. The stiffer springs can get very stiff, so you probably have better choice than with the Jammin shocks, which, if I remember correctly, the stiffest springs still weren't quite enough for a truggy, but then again I do like hard springs and damping.

Linc, did you find any? I know there was a guy selling a set of Jammin BB's on rctech for pretty cheap.

jammin/ofna seem to be the most popular

I have not bought anything yet... Need to measure the ones i have to find the correct lengths, although pretty much any buggy shock should work fine...
