New FLM Brushless Motor Mount in the Nude

[Serum]

I'm still debating what shocks to use. I've got a drawing for a buggy shocktower,

but the innovative RC LST shocks look like business too. On the other hand, too heavy perhaps.. the new ofna 16mm bigbores.. or the good old ofna/UE shocks.. Proline powerstrokes perhaps.. but they are impossible to get replacement parts for.. even proline stopped carrying them..

What vehicle are the ofna/ue shocks from? I always wondered, cause they must be similar length to a stock maxx shock. Are they a front shock from an 1/8 ofna buggy?

The Ofna LX buggy shocks are the same ones that UE uses on their setup if I'm not mistaken.

Serum,

I am planning to use the Aftershock shocks instead of the LST2 shocks. They are the same size and design as the LST2 shocks, but they are made of plastic and ALOT lighter than the LST2 version. Many of the guys who race the LST2s use them to cut weight on the race rigs and they don't seem to have any durability problems. You can pick up parts and new shock sets from Ebay for a much more reasonable price than the InnovativeRC shocks.

I also have a set of the Ofna/UE shocks sitting here that may get a test run on this truck as well.
