err, swap the rear uprights and add some kickup?
One mistake I made when I assembled my R3 late at night.

Cuda Shocks

I would like to add to my Mini Rs4 some new shock bodies, HPI's are a little bit pricey and R10 has the Alex shock bodies for the Cuda in the color I want, and they are only 2400Yen:
3263432637157,ALEX RACING,1200YEN,5142 DAMPER CASE & O RING HOLDER PURPLE,2pairs

Is it possible to keep my HPI shock shafts & piston/Yokomo springs/ MIP O-rings?

Thanks.
