rebuild at the track or at home didn't matter. this was while racing inside and outside separately but mostly inside over the last few weeks. The old V1 shocks don't ever do this on the front of the buggy. Just the new V2 shocks i have on the rear (It's a B4 that hasn't been completely converted yet

Team Durango Springs

Just received a durango shipment of spring combinations.

Also just received a transponder system for a backyard track.

Hopefully I'll get to do some testing in the upcoming weeks (have a lot of work to do before I can run the system)

I can get you a set if you want them

I was considering it, but I still haven't used my velvets and I have several pair of v1 and v2's as it is.

Anyone want to buy some v2 or v1 shocks hit me up and I'll be willing to experiment with some big bores.

Do you guys use the hook side of the velcro on the body and the loop side on the chassis? Industrial Strength tape or regular?

V2 are threaded for better adjustment of ride height and are easier to rebuild since the orings come out of the bottom without complete disassembly of the shock.

you still have to pull apart the shock and take the rod end off. You just wont need that old tool and bad language to do it

B4.1 rear toe?

I've looked at the pro setup sheets for the car and seen that most run the zero degree rear hub carrier. The sheets don't note the rear toe blocks or rear toe-in at all. Am I missing something? Is there a standard that everyone runs? Thanks for any help.

normally the corner or little pods in the chassi behing the esc and reciever. u can add 2 extra squares next 2 the receiver to balence. idk about the setup on how much weight to add but thats usually generic and u could add a lipo ballest but idk what to set ur truck up with, check ae site.
