Default Mini-t shocks

Hi as u know my mini t come and i love it but i think it needs a shock upgrade

what shocks are best i really like the look of the gpm shocks and i would like to trick the truck out in all the gpm blue alloy parts but are they as good as the losi shocks or are there any shocks out there that are better

when i jump i land the car on all 4's but the chassis still hits the floor with a thump and this im guessing this isnt good so at the moment im landing on grass[:'(]

the losi shocks are the best shocks for the mini-t once you stop the oil weep.
this is an easy fix with the O rings from http://www.b-p-p.com/Mini-T.htm
their not on the website you have 2 ask for them.
in my OP the GPM stuff is ALL junk, none of the parts fit right ( most of all the parts need 2 be filed to fit correctly[:@]).
their shocks may look the the part but their junk as well, the inner oil transfer ports are 2 big meaning you can uses as thick as you want oil and their will be very little to no change in dampening.
if your going alloy then go with the Dynamite Parts, their a few bucks more but well worth it.
ive tryed all 3 major brands for alum parts and the Dynamite Parts are by far better finished and better fitting then the others.
like they say you get what you pay for.
