i had a problem today that cost me the A main. I came down from a jump and kinda overshot the landing so there was a little chassis slap. The positive battery wire slapped the damn mode button on my esc. I was like WTF. It happened twice. but the buggy ran awesome. TQ'd and led the majority of the race until that crap happened. but you live and you learn. I think I'm gonna ditch tekin in 1/10th scale and and go orion.

Not where it's leaking from..it leaking from the O ring shock shaft area..it could be "operater error"..but I doubt it..over the last year I've built 3 full sets of Durango shocks..2 full sets of Losi 22 shocks..2 sets of Associated 12mm shocks and NONE of them have leaked..and none of the above cars were as expensive as the RB6. .so I'm a bit dissapointed to have to buy a shock rebuild kit for a brand new car..

I've built quite a few k shocks and I never had any leaks. That's pretty strange.

Glad you got your RB6 working good .

I believe it's this....without looking it up in a manual.

Just to make sure........where is it leaking? Down the shaft or by the threads where it screws into the body?

Can I use the losi 22 topshaft for the rb6?
I'm using avid slippers on my 22 and I took it off and didn't fit the stock rb6 due to the shaft is fatter..
I just don't want to take my 22 apart and not knowing it will fit lol.. aka lazy

Do you guys use the shim for the kick plate for indoor clay track ?

Sometimes the o-rings get pinched and it sounds like the shock shaft o-rings are fine since you replaced them and still have the issue. I'd replace the outer shock cartridge o ring. If it's not that....then last thing to do is check plastic internal spacers and replace those...perhaps a bad mold.

Most people don't run the shim.
Check out the "spacer" field right next to the caster.

I run saddles all the way back with the motor brace shaved since our track can become quite slick. Whatever I miss in performance when it's high bite (watered well), I make up for when its slick. Depends on your track conditions.
