An idle mind.......
I was just dinking around the other night and got to thinking about the new LST from Losi. (Don't ask...sometimes my mind wanders lol ) If the deciding factor for getting an LST is the fact that it has 1/8 buggy type shocks on it then why don't I put buggy shocks on the Monster GT?? Will they even fit??
So as the old saying goes "an idle mind is the devil's workshop" I got the GT out and whooped off one of the rear shocks, took one of the shocks of the Ofna buggy and did a swap and guess what I found???
The buggy shocks are a bolt on. You would need 4 or perhaps you would run 8 with lighter springs and oil just for kicks. The only difference is in overall length. The Ofna Ultra buggy shocks were about 1/4 inch shorter than the Monster gt shock. Perhaps another buggy has a shock that is equal in length to the GT.
So that is where I stand now on this project. I am thinking about running 8 buggy shocks on the GT and making it the ultimate jumper.
Any thoughts????
