Need some recomendations on new shocks for my wheely king basher.

I am currently running traxxas big bores, but I keep bending shock shafts.

What are any of you running? Maybe some 1/8 scale stuff? Guess I need something with a beefier shock shaft.

What do you think?

wondering this too, I just picked up a couple wk for the boy and i, and have also found bending to be a problem. IDk if its the angle they are at, the flexibility of the links, or what, but it does seem to be rough on them.

Mine is actually a crawler king, so I have metal lower links.

I am also running a brushless setup in mine, and I beat the crap out of it.

didn't take long for me to trash the stock shocks, but I thought for sure the traxxas ones would have lasted longer.
