Hello everyone!

My friend has problems with the rear shock body, as you can see in the photos. This is a new car passed 2-3 practice days and one race (on astro only). Installed Schelle pistons (SCH1038). After a while, each five minutes of driving (with new oil in shock) oil is becoming black with shavings. He fills the new oil, drives again 5 minutes and checks - the oil also turns black with the shavings. Before that, he used the older versions of XB4 with black shock body (with the same pistons) and did not have problem with them.

He wrote a message to the XRay with a question about the shock body. They said that my friend uses not original pistons and they are can't help (but XRay drivers recommend to use these pistons - http://www.rctech.net/forum/electric...l#post14381450).

And finally, a joke-answer from XRay about black shock body: «In black shocks he might not notice that the oil is not clear, but now in light colored shock bodies it is notable immediately» :-)

Does anyone have such problems with shock body?
