So the FS racing shocks I bought have a 4mm shaft, so do the RC8T, except the RC8T strangely seemed to have turned the 4mm shaft down to 3mm, before threading for the shock boot.
So the answer buy some 3mm shcock boots from the RC8T which I can luckily still source in Oz, force those onto the 4mm shafts and the truggy will see another day.
Parts on order, I'm excited again, but nervous for whatever might perish or break next time.

Probably should have just bought a new Arrma....
The RC8T shocks have 2 versions. Regular and HD. The HD are the 4mm rod ends, thicker and stronger while the Regular is the stock. What exactly are you looking for. I have a good surplus of parts for the original RC8B/T.
