Gustav · **4 shock set up -** 04.13.2006, 04:26 PM

I'm going to make a lightweight version of my BL LST (seen here http://www.rc-monster.com/forum/showthread.php?t=2739)and i need some lighter shocks.The target weight is 10.5-11 lbs,what would be the best 4 shock setup for a vehicle that weight? Traxxas big bores? I'll need 5 lb springs i reckon.

I'll make some shorter,wider towers for the shorter shocks,might sandwich the standoffs like on the Havoc.

Other shocks i was thinking of was maybe the fronts from the Baja 5B,can't find what length they are or what they weigh or what spring rates you can get for it though,it's still not available yet i think.
