As someone who's used stock Traxxas, Proline Powerstrokes and now the UE. I would have to say for a heavier truck the UE are the best. I ran the Powerstrokes for about two months in my Supermaxx truck and no matter what combination of oil weight and springs I used they just were not able to absorb the landing of a 12+ lb truck with out slamming the chassis to the ground. With the UE shocks you can go with 8 and run heavy springs (blue or black) and a heavy oil and never worry about botteming your suspension out. I just have alot more option with my set of 8 UE shocks and am really happy with the durability of them. Good luck.
