Team Losi LST Shocks fit!!
I'm sure some of you have seen the Losi LST truck, well as you know it has the largest shocks i've seen, so after seeing them I wondered if the shocks would fit the MT. So i ordered the Integy Alum. Blue LST shocks which are threaded body and reservoirs. Yes they fit, check it out I don't have anyway to do pics so please don't ask. but I'm located in Maryland if you're close. located in Maryland if youre close.

RE: Team Losi LST Shocks fit!!
I had that same idea about a month ago, but I never acted on it. I changed the shock oil in my stock shocks instead, and I'm happy. [8D]
One question...have you given your MT any pounding since you installed the new shocks? I want to know how the travel is working out. I was a bit afraid that the shafts would bend too easily and that the springs would be too soft for a truck as heavy as an FG. I figured that it would probably twist the shock bodies and bottom out a lot.
Anything to report? [sm=confused.gif]

RE: Team Losi LST Shocks fit!!
Since the stock LST shocks are known to have break prone shock shafts that too was my initial thought. Losi does have some hardened shock shafts though. And so far as spring rates go, I have seen some in the 8.5 lb area. I think they were made by Hardcore if I am not mistaken.
