With the shocks some nicer Aluminium shocks would be nice. It took me a while but eventually i worked out the plastic shocks and how to build them. But they are still a pain compared to other brands shocks. The Xray Aluminium ones that are currently available i will never use again, i dont like the design at all and i could never get them right on my car.

drew, ralph and the boys will always bend over (lol) backwards for you, no matter where they are.......just dont ask to use paulie's chap stick.

Jay, thanks. What we will probley do is a "build your shocks video" with Paul or me. I feel when you see how we do it. You will see that it is not that hard to get right. I will email Mario on all this and see if there is something we can do. Maybe just an upgrade alum. shock.

Thanks Drew

RCAmerica's goal like always since the company started was to help the customer always. That is what the company has been built off of.Maybe you should of came up and said hello. I think you would of had a different out come.

The changes Xray is making are not minor. The chassis and steering system are big changes in how the car handles. "the flex and ackerman". And I feel that we have alot of option parts out for the car. I will say something to them about the shocks, but its hard because we are not having any problems with them.

Sometime today I will go on the T3 thread and post how I build my shocks. It is really pretty simple.

Thanks Drew
