What are other shocks beside the stock ones out there? Can you use the RC18 shocks or springs?

losi makes an aftermarket set of aluminum and there is a web site called thetoyz.com that sells threaded shocks for it anything that fits a mini t will fit your slider

Yes, You can use the 18t shocks. But you need to put the the bottom part from the losi shock. The part that threads on to the shock shaft. And the ball stud from the Assc. must
be used for the top of the shock. The losi will not fit.

I tried the aluminum Losi shocks and I HATED them. They leaked all over the place. They dont use o-rings, they have little plastic gaskets that dont seal worth crap! I just stayed with the stock shocks. I did, however, get the Losi springs. The stock springs are way too stiff (for me anyway).

Just wondering if anyone has tried the gpm aluminum threaded shocks for the mini t they have on thetoyz.com according to the description, they say they don't leak

i use the aluminum losi shocks and if you dont over tighten the cartridge they hold a build pretty good.
