Default i give in...

dammit - finally i have to use the forum!!

i got all my bits here to finish this thing at last, but have hit a problem, how did u guys running front buggy shocks or any other 100mm or longer shocks get them to fit the standard towers? my shocks measure 105mm hole centre to hole centre, and are to long for the jt racing towers. this means if i mount them on the jt towers i lose shock travel - defeats the object.

i can sort it by bolting some spare towers to the existing ones, but it looks ugly - is that how u guys got em on?

has anyone tried fixing the lower shock mount actually in the arm, like they are on the 1/8 buggies?

while im here - anyone know where in the UKi can get a 43t and 39t genesis steel spur gears from?

btw - ground clearance with tmaxx wheels on is hilarious with these shocks, pics soon, damn truck...
