Looking for some shock advice as well. I'm a total rookie with tuning; pistons, fluid, springs, geometry, rebound, etc, too many variables lol.

What I am seeing on mine is the rear suspension is smooth and consistent all the way through the travel until it bottoms out on the table. The front is smooth and just before bottoming out it seems to get stiffer I guess, almost like it has bump stops or something?

My old rc8.2e is the same front and rear and will hit the table smooth and consistent through the travel on both ends. Now, having said that, I wasn't ever a huge fan of the rc8 so maybe my eb48.3 shocks are working exactly how they should be?

Other question is the springs on the tekno seem very short especially in the front. They are shorter than the associated springs but the tekno shocks are obviously longer. I guess once I set my droop and adjust for ride height then the springs are probably fine, but they just seem short?
