I bought some of the older Losi spring cups like the ones found on the XXXT part #LOSA5079, and then I bought 4 of the TRA3768 shock collars. The spring cups are just slightly smaller than the 22 cups, so I took a razor blade and split the traxxas collar so I could fit it over the spring cup. Then I super glued the traxxas collar to the spring cup and cut the shaft opening the same size. Spring sets on it perfectly. Fits the AE shock end perfectly. Obviously its easier to use the Losi cups, but they are M.I.A. Out here. I will post a pic in a minute.
Here is the prior post Brent mentioned. I have been using these on my B4.1 for a few weeks now. No problems.
