What weight shock pil are you running in your MT - 06.06.2008, 10:07 PM

Just inquiring as to your set ups..I will be bashing only w/my t-maxx..it will probably weigh 12+ lbs. (I am using Ofna shocks..8). Also, what 1/8 shocks will fit on this truck. I am getting tired of servicing 8 socks

2. MBX-5T 1520, MMM ON 5S
3. MBX-5 ONROAD CONVERSION 1515, MMM ON 5S
4. MRX-3 ON ROAD CONVERSION 1512, MMM ON 6S

I used 50wt on my BPP and MBX5T just because it was all I had and it works great as I went with stiffer springs . I've seen a few people go with the Ofna 1/8 scale shocks (The long 4" ones I think) for their T or E-maxx.

I use 45wt but am going up to 50 soon.

you should beable to use any front 1/8th scale shocks, because I used rears on my MGT, but they were to long which caused me to remount them. fronts should be about right.

I say run 8 of them. they really dont weigh much and its only about $40 more to just finish out the set.

problem is the shocks may be to wide to fit them all into the a-arm.
