integy piggybacks for racing (revo 2.5r)
ya huy ? would integy piggybacks be a good choice for racing heres what happened i have a set filled with 35wt and want to race with them next weekend i also have traxxas gtr's but i cant figure out what screws hold the shock mounts in place i think i lost them i cant really buy a new set of mounts because im in germany and im only here for 2 weeks on r&r from ramadi, iraq so thinkin of just tryin the piggybacks. so how would they work? if so could anyone post pics of the gtr shock mounts and what screws i need for them. if not just need to know how the piggybacks will work thanks

the screw holes may be stripped, if they are, go to a hardware store and pick up some 3mm or 4mm bolts long enough to go thru the whole unit and nut the back of it..
sorry im not more help. as far as oil, you ll rolly wnt about 70wt oil in the back and 30 in the front, i use 90wt in my integy all around, but im a basher... and my maxx is all aluminum.. so is heavier than the norm.

I'll run the truck about 10 min and blow a shock o ring. I think there awsome when they work but I took them off went back to stock. I'm probably going to sell them and get a set of GTR's. I use 80wt Aand had to lower the ride height cause the suspension was stiff it would roll over really easy. but any way i wanted to know if you blow yours out to. I've rebuilt them like the directions said like 4 times now. I dont get it.

on my maxx, dont have a Revo YET!,,, other than 2 bent shafts, my integys have help up pretty good, now mind you im not jumping houses or off schools. but do get the occasional 8 foot of air and 20 feet of distance. so they take some good punishment.. in my experience atleast....

Those long screws of mine don't bite anymore and i don't have a problem racing with my revo. The originally thread into the front/rear bulkhead. If they don't thread in put some shoe goo/silicone on the heads to hold them in and you will be fine till you can get some parts.
